What is DisPlace : The Poetry of Nduka Otiono about?

<p><b><i>DisPlace: The Poetry of Nduka Otiono</i> engages actively with a diasporic world: Otiono is equally at home critiquing petroculture in Nigeria and in Canada. His work straddles multiple poetic traditions and places African intellectual history at the forefront of an engagement with Western poetics. </b></p> <p> The poems in this selection are drawn from Otiono's two published collections, <i>Voices in the Rainbow,</i> and <i>Love in a Time of Nightmares</i>, and the volume includes previously unpublished new poems. Peter Midgley’s introduction contextualizes Otiono's work within the frame of diaspora and newer critical frames like Afropolitanism, attending to form as well as his political engagement. The volume concludes with an afterword written by the poet with Chris Dunton.</p>
