reviewed Collected Plays 2: The Lion and the Jewel, Kongi's Harvest, The Trials of Brother Jero, Jero's Metamorphosis, and Madmen and Specialists, Vol. 2 on July 18, 2020 Collected Plays 2: The Lion and the Jewel, Kongi's Harvest, The Trials of Brother Jero, Jero's Metamorphosis, and Madmen and Specialists, Vol. 2
I've grown to admire Soyinka's dramatic work over the years. This collection features five compelling plays. The Lion and a Jewel tells the humorous tale of a wily chieftain who vanquishes a rival with a Western education and seduces the belle of the village. Kongi's Harvest examines the rise of dictators in postcolonial West Africa, and the Jero plays (The Trials of Brother Jero and The Metamorphosis of Jero) take on corruption and charlatanism in modern Nigeria. Madmen and Specialists, set during the Biafra secession in the late 1960s, explores the inhumane and cannibalistic aspects of civil war through the figure of the mad Dr. Bero.
