Writers in Politics: A Re-engagement with Issues of Literature and Society

This book reflects many of the concerns found in Decolonising the Mind and Moving the Centre.

Ngugi has put together a new collection under an old title, rewriting most of the pieces that appeared in the original 1981 edition, and adding completely new essays, such as ‘Freedom of Expression’, written for the campaign to try to save Ken Saro-Wiwa and other Niger Delta activists and writers from execution in Nigeria.
