I think the days of Mills and Boons,James Hardly Chase,Nora Roberts and the rest of them are numbered,if not over.we've got writers in Nigeria,juicy and enriching Nigerian literature are within reach,books that paint clear pictures of the average Nigerian life and society,our values,struggles,mistakes,dreams and even our environment.You wudnt even realise when you start nodding in agreement and smiling in identification.Fictions that talk about the harmattarn rather than the winter,the aso oke rather than the bonnet,the egusi soup rather than pizzas.Its good to know the culture of others but its rewarding to make our way of life known to others by writing our story ourselves.Lets look inwards,lets read and write Nigerian literature.It talks about us.

I'm with you on this. It feels so good to read Nigerian-themed stories. The instant connection is almost guaranteed to be there!
