The Gods Had Gone to Sleep is an African story narrated in a distinct dramatic style. The story is full of actions and dialogues married by philosophical thoughts relative to the norms from an African society. The story is set in Wasoya.
Dele Kogbe has made a signal contribution to the exploration of the nature and future of Africana philosophy, which refi nes the intellectual life of our ancient Motherlands civilization and culture -Terrence Wendell Brathwaite, Founding Programme Manager, MBA Degree in Global Development & Comparative Law, Coventry Business School, Coventry University, UK.
The God Had Gone to Sleep is a good story rooted in Yoruba custom and tradition, enlivens the mind of the readers as it unveils and resolves tension associated with kingship and dictatorship - Moshood Folorunsho, author of When the Melon Speaks (A play) and Programme Offi cer, Educare Trust, Nigeria.
This is a really lovely book, I have enjoyed reading. There is an established African style, which adds to the telling of a Nigerian story, I would not say that it should be anglicised as the style adds fl avour and character ...good language and the ability to tell a story, build tension and so on. Well done, Dele, you clearly have talent as a writer -Angela Marshall, Senior Lecturer in Law, Coventry University, UK
