Here is Esiaba Irobi, the first headliner of the 1st Sentinel Poetry Live event. He read from his new collection of poetry, Why I Don't Like Philip Larkin at the Waterloo Gallery yesterday.
These two ladies came to catch the Colours of Spring exhibition on its last day at the gallery and knew nothing of the poetry reading. They encountered Esiaba Irobi and stayed much longer than they had originally planned, forming part of the audience for the poetry reading.
I am a writer and arts journalist now based in Lagos. This is a blog on arts and culture. The focus is on Nigeria's art scene, especially her 'Word's Body' - the writers. As and when, we'll also touch on wider African writing, as well as international literature. In short, a saturation of the arts.
