　　The first African to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, as

well as a political activist of prodigious energies, Wole Soyinka

now follows his modern classic Ake: The Years of Childhood with an

equally important chronicle of his turbulent life as an adult in

(and in exile from) his beloved, beleaguered homeland.

In the tough, humane, and lyrical language that has typified his

plays and novels, Soyinka captures the indomitable spirit of

Nigeria itself by bringing to life the friends and family who

bolstered and inspired him, and by describing the pioneering

theater works that defied censure and tradition. Soyinka not only

recounts his exile and the terrible reign of General Sani Abacha,

but shares vivid memories and playful anecdotes–including his

improbable friendship with a prominent Nigerian businessman and the

time he smuggled a frozen wildcat into America so that his students

could experience a proper Nigerian barbecue.

More than a major figure in the world of literature, Wole Soyinka

is a courageous voice for human rights, democracy, and freedom. You

Must Set Forth at Dawn is an intimate chronicle of his thrilling

public life, a meditation on justice and tyranny, and a mesmerizing

testament to a ravaged yet hopeful land.
