The committed contemporary African writer who is critical of the managerial policies of the political leadership of his country is often faced with the option of either staying in the home country and dying of starvation and persecution and even detention for his ideas or going into exile, usually to the North where he can enjoy the fruits of his labour, in the seclusion and isolation of his new abode, far away from the warmth of the celebrated African hospitality and the source of inspiration for his works.
