Description

SHAFTS OF ARROWS PIERCE WITS. Cash Onadele "Aiyeko-ooto" has mastered the art of fictional drama. It shows in the characters and tales of the Yoruba ancient cultures and traditions depicted in this trilogy. In "Blood and Arrows of Wits" part 1: he pulled on every human emotion to captivate our thoughts. This imaginative story telling left no stones unturned. Weaving the ways of mortals and the acts of gods to make magical, yet, believable! In this part 2: Shafts of Arrows Pierce Wits: again, we are translocated back to the deep jungles of forests of sub-sahara, Africa. Where the characters bring to life ordinary ways of men living centuries ago. What keeps their lives turning up as strange super ordinary events? There was hate, discord, ambition, greed and love. No more than we see in present day. However, if their powerful gods and goddesses weren't mixed in their mortal affairs, ghosts were. If you think politics and social change are modern sciences, you are in for a surprise of their practiced arts almost perfected in the struggle for reign. This combined with their sense of traditional governance and values become necessary tools to defend against attacks of foreign colonists under clouds of transforming culture. Even today, as long as there are rulers and the ruled, agitators of a few disgruntled natives have a crack to peddle the bought influence of foreign imperialists. We shall meet again in final part of this fictional drama trilogy!
