Wole Soyinka launches new novel after 48 years
In his words, “Some themes demand a greater expository approach.”
“ So I returned to prose,” he added.
Speaking about the time frame working on the book, he said “Regarding the theme itself, the answer to that will be forever in terms of deciding.

When asked if he would like the work to be seen as fiction, he said: “I’m going to leave that to the readers to take whatever they want out of it.”
