The Letter; Fragments of my Soul

Fragments of the poet's soul, deep and heavenly-inspired drops of wisdom cinched by words artistically hammered and smelted into stanzas by a crafty wordsmith.

THE LETTER is a book with many brooks; a summon with sermons, a teaching with preaching. It is a mine of wisdom, and an ocean with depth of insights. It is a manual for sound health and genuine wealth. It offers guide to life and success. It exposes the easiest way to man's ruin and the path that leads to shame and flame. THE LETTER is a tour-de-force that has consolidated Samuel Onyeche as a Master of Word Art, a skillful craftsman who knows how to chisel with pen, a poet to be admired among men in the services of the Muse. A poet; colourful, brilliant, witty and compelling.

"In the epistolary poetry, entitled, The Letter, Samuel Onyeche inventively provides some parabolic pieces of advice to his unborn son; a synecdoche that he employs to reflect and affect the lives of both teenagers and youths of the contemporary time and those afterwards...the intellectual stride of the writer, no doubt, is profoundly phenomenal."

"Here's a collection of poetic nuggets from a prolific poet, who uses the voice of the poet persona to advise his imaginary son on some existential issues via an epistolary form. The poems in this collection are both didactic and dramatic, and as such could be read for their enlightening or entertaining values. In any case, they should be read by young people, who aspire to attain great heights in life and their parents also."
