Along the Odokoko River

"Ahmed Koroma has surpassed himself in this apt description about the community of his upbringing; the myths, beliefs and mores peculiar to its spawn and denizen, in this exhilarating collection of poems. He brings the rich cultural tapestry of relationship with the "Odokoko" Waterway and its environs. His perceptive use of juxtaposition to describe diverse experiences is uncanny and leaves one with a mysterious and powerful feeling of deja-vu."
