Nsukka Harvest: Poetry From Nsukka, 1966-1972, Chukwuma Azuonye

Chukwuma Azuonye

This first collection of poetry from the post-independence Nigerian Crisis, the Biafra war of independence, and their aftermaths (1966-1972) is a harvest of the vision and commitments of the second generation of Nsukka student poets. Most of the poets represented in this harvest have gone on to publish collections of their own poetry and to claim a place in the canons of modern Nigerian poetry.
