Chinua Achebe and Other Poems is a tribute to Chinua Achebe, Africa's foremost modern novelist. Deploying intertextuality, several poems in the volume explore certain of the issues covered in Achebe's best-known works, spanning colonialism and postcolonialism. Ilori delves into recent history in a journalistic parlance and throws into bold relief the contradictory and controversial politics around culture, nation-building, citizenship, tyranny and immigration. Overall, this volume fits into the genre of postcolonial literature and its ascendant elements are postmodernist aesthetics braided into traditional orality, mythology and incantatory cadences.
