    I met him some years ago in Miami, Florida (USA) but I have known of him through his plays since the 1960s. I had him autograph my first edition copy of Kongi's Harvest.

      Quite hard. As a lover of nature, he lives in the woods of Abeokuta in western Nigeria

    With all due respect Sir, you didn’t start reading at 3. Kids can barely talk at 3. You are a great writer, but don’t get cocky.

      I began reading at 2. Plenty of witnesses. One of my grandsons at 3. Not common, but don't be an ass.

    Obviously, Soyinka has totally lost touch with reality. He is a hater. Has always been a hater.

      He almost died in prison for trying to stop the Biafran War from happening. Go and read his prison memoir, 'The Man Died'. Then you'd learn gradually to love him as a wonderful human being.
