Reviews

PRAISE FOR BEN OKRI: 'Part narrative, part philosophy, part allegory ... a series of intriguing revelations' Daily Mail, on The Age of Magic. 'There can be no mistaking Okri's passion and intelligence ... powerful' Sunday Telegraph, on A Way of Being Free. 'Poetic writing of a very high order. Tender, nightmarish, wise and soulful' Daily Telegraph, on Dangerous Love.
