Book Description
A bad country, a bad people, a bad king. Èdìdàré is an epic poem which tells the story of a group of adventurers journeying to a far country, from which they expect to return with the Wisdom Fruit. Led by a warrior called Irinkerindo, they discover a city hidden deep inside the forest. Èdìdàré as this city is known, is a place of indescribable filth. The suffering dwellers have been given to inhuman habits and mindless existence under the rule of a dynasty of idiot kings and gluttonous lawmakers. Bursting with a spirit of chivalry, the travellers seek to restore civilization to the city - to stop the epidemic vices and other vile practises; but laws are soon made to permanently expel the sojourners from Èdìdàré.

Book Description
Nigerian novelist Omotoso delineates the contrast between the country's two most widely read writers, describing Wole Soyinka as a playful imagist steeped in the myth and magic of his Yoruba culture, and Chinua Achebe as expressing internalized Igbo cultural traditions.
