by Funso Aiyejina
A Letter to Lynda and other poems, Funso Aiyejina’s first book of poems, was first published in 1988, and won the Association of Nigerian Authors Prize in 1989. Highly personal and yet universal, it remains a crucial exploration of the historical and emotional relationships involving Africans on both sides of the Atlantic, and of the creative links between the African continent and the diaspora.

Funso Aiyejina was born in Ososo, Edo State, Nigeria, in 1949. He holds degrees in Nigeria, Canada, and Trinidad, and has taught at the University of Ife (now Obafami Awolowo University). He currently teaches at the University of the West Indies in Trinidad.
