Reviews

"A relentless humanist ethos underlines Nwachukwu-Agbada's consciousness in this important volume of poetry. Eloquent here is the voice of a poet who has a riveting "eye for the unsettling." - NIYI OSUNDARE, Poet and Distinguished Professor of English, University of New Orleans, USA "If we swallow wooden pestles / shall we not perpetually stand erect?" In Bomblasts, J. O. J. Nwachukwu-Agbada refreshes the ancient land marks of verse with a multi-cultural slant, confidence, and a mature vision." - OBU UDEOZO, Global Artist "Bomblast or Breakfast is surely a mature and well-crafted work, and shows great artistic discipline." - TANURE OJAIDE, Frank Porter Graham Professor of Africana Studies, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte
