Reseña del libro "How Little we Are: A Collection of Thoughts (en Inglés)"
“He returned to the fray one more time, this time to learn more about the enemy and engineer its defeat… an expression of will-power and tenacity that has become exceedingly rare in this society” – Wole Soyinka Painted in broad strokes, How Little We are, is at once exhilarating and poignant, as it throws light on much of the reality of the situation of Nigeria, revealing an intimate portrait of the fragility of the nation. Examining the dynamic themes of power, corruption, nationalism, environment, human trafficking, illegal migration, and internecine conflicts, the author draws parallels on their connection and the balances of the effect between the winners and the losers. In a provocative and original analysis, Newton C. Jibunoh demonstrates that everything rises and falls on what we do and don’t do; it all matters - the cunning of political players, the blackouts, the stance of the people, the social stench, the economic rot, the killing fields, the dominance of oil. The elegance of nature, the environmental woes, the dare of the Sahara, the collapsing federal and state infrastructures. The historical irresponsibility, and the folly of idle young minds… all congregate to determine the rise or fall of a nation.The resonant themes that populate the pages of “How Little We Are” are vividly infused with the author’s signature blend of experiential knowledge, deep humanity and stylistic storytelling, which cohere into a brilliant collection of thoughts.
