May Their Shadows Never Shrink: Wole Soyinka and the Oxford Professorship of Poetry

This important book documents stimulating and engaging reflections and thoughts from international
writers and commentators who collectively validate and establish Soyinka as more than deserving of
the honour of the Oxford Professorship of Poetry. The co-editors Ivor Agyeman-Duah and Lucy
Newlyn campaigned for the election of Soyinka and provide insightful analyses of the campaign while
arguing for electoral reform. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the future of world literature
and inclusiveness.
