I learnt a lot about the art of writing from reading this book and I recommend it to anyone interested in writing, professionally or as a hobby.I recall buying this book during my NYSC year over a decade ago. A stimulating book about the universal call to holiness.Walter Rodney’s earth-shaking book on exactly the title.
