BLURB: Eruptions from Within ponders the extremes of yearning, longing, loneliness, poverty, wonders of nature, tribute to the Muse, self-examination and other facets of life that make up the poet’s world-view. It ploughs through mindscapes of relationships and socio-political cohabitation and dislocation, at times signposting ways to salvation and at others giving you the leash to make a choice.
The language of Zailani’s faith-based debut collection is grand, lucid, fluid and imaginative. It is an additional proof that Nigerian poetry is in full blossom during its present renaissance.
