LENRIE PETERS


Easily the most creative, internationally heralded writer to have come out of Gambia. This surgeon was to make his name as a most accomplished poet; though his novel, The Second Round was also a success.
His other books include Poems (Ibadan: Mbari Publications), Satellites (London: Heinemann, Katchikali  (London: Heinemann, African Writers Series), and Selected Poetry (London: Heinemann, African Writers Series No. 238)

Studies:


Four modern West African poets by Romanus N Egudu 

The matter and manner of modern West African poetry in English : a study of Okigbo, Clark, Awoonor-Williams and Peters by Romanus N Egudu

A study of six African poets : voices out of the skull by Paul Theroux
