a celebration of a city its history and people.
Get PDFPerhaps no other Nigerian city is more deserving of a
commemorative publication than Ibadan - “the largest city in
West Africa”. With a rich history and tradition, unique physical
features, and a large cosmopolitan population, Ibadan is
without doubt an obvious candidate for the kind of literary
documentary celebration, made famous by the Time-Life
books on major cities around the world.
IBADAN
XI
And so when nearly ten years ago we first thought of a book
on Ibadan, and one that would capture the grandeur of the
city, what we had in mind was a large-format, lavishly illustrated
coffee-table book. Having given birth, perhaps by historical
accident to the Nigerian publishing industry, we thought it
was somewhat a travesty that the city had not been formally
honoured all these years in a fitting publication. We
commissioned a photographer to go around the city, to
capture ‘candid’ shots ofthe city and its people. We also went
into the archives to unearth relevant historical pictures, and
we contacted two of the country’s best- known creative
writers, to celebrate the city in their inimitable literary styles.Memoirs/reminiscences; My First Trip to Ibadan - January 1971; Where I Grew Up; Titi Oke-Ado; Quacks and Quasi-quacks; A Funny Thing Happened in Ibadan. . .(Anecdotes about Ibadan (1946-1962); A King and His Wit; Prose: The Eighth Hill; At the Bottom of Premier Hill; What Ibadan Said; The Dog-Catcher of Alakia; Three Women; The Sign of the Crab; Tears Are Not Enough; The Masquerade; Poetry: Ibadandun; Ibadan; Ibadan: A Tease of the Totem; My Husband, I saw a Big One Today; Ibadan Dun (Sweet Ibadan); Ibadan's Thirst; That Ancient Wayside Heath
