Reviews

[Victor Maxwell · Rating 5 out of 5]

Festus Iyayi was able to do what other Nigerian Civil War writers could not do : Bringing the readers into the war even when they weren't there in 1967/1970. The sheer realistic picture of the battle on the Onitsha bridge was not, strangely repulsive, it only activated an 'almost' deja vu feeling and brought a real feeling of dread felt during wars. This book is simply great and purely frank.

An interesting , somewhat personal experience of the civil war, festus iyayi as a social realist has definitely exposed the darkerr sides of the war through his main character.

Iyayi's "Heroes" is proof that those who do not learn from history are fated to repeat it.
