New on TikTok: Gabriel Okara | Nigeria | Memory. Language. Return. Gabriel Okara was the first modernist poet from independent Nigeria. In The Fisherman’s Invocation, he merges tradition and experiment, Igbo philosophy and English form, capturing the ache of colonial rupture and the longing to return home. His verse is both ancient and immediate—unfolding like a proverb, landing like a drumbeat.
