- Aké:_The_Years_of_Childhood abstract "Aké: The Years of Childhood is a memoir by Nigerian writer Wole Soyinka that was first published in 1981. It tells the story of Soyinka's boyhood before and during World War II in a Yoruba village in western Nigeria called Aké, where the author spent the first 12 years of his life. When the book was first published, the New York Times reviewer wrote: \"Playwright, poet, novelist, polemical essayist and now autobiographer, Mr. Soyinka is unquestionably Africa's most versatile writer and arguably her finest. In Ake he has produced an account of his childhood as a Yoruba in western Nigeria that is destined to become a classic of African autobiography, indeed a classic of childhood memoirs wherever and whenever produced....Through recollection, restoration and re-creation, he conveys a personal vision that was formed by the childhood world that he now returns to evoke and exalt in his autobiography. This is the ideal circle of autobiography at its best. It is what makes Ake, in addition to its other great virtues, the best available introduction to the work of one of the liveliest, most exciting writers in the world today.\"Aké: The Years of Childhood was awarded an Anisfield-Wolf Award in 1983. In 1995 BBC Radio 4 broadcast a 10-part abridgement (by Margaret Busby) in the Book at Bedtime series, read by Colin McFarlane.Other autobiographical writings by Soyinka include The Man Died (1972), Isara: A Voyage Around \"Essay\" (1989), Ibadan: The \"Penkelemes\" Years, A Memoir, 1946–1965 (1994), and You Must Set Forth at Dawn (2006).".
