内容简介：
When he was 4 years old, spurred by insatiable curiosity and
the beat of a marching drum, Wole Soyinka slipped silently through
the gate of his parents' yard and followed a police band to a
distant village. This was his first journey beyond Aké, Nigeria,
and reading his account is akin to witnessing a child's
epiphany:
The parsonage wall had vanished forever but it no longer
mattered. Those token bits and pieces of Aké which had entered our
home on occasions, or which gave off hints of their nature in those
Sunday encounters at church, were beginning to emerge in their
proper shapes and sizes.
He returned, perched upon the handlebars of a policeman's
bicycle, "markedly different from whatever I was before the march."
The reader's horizons feel similarly expanded after finishing this
astonishing book.
Nobel laureate Soyinka is a prolific playwright, poet, novelist,
and critic, but seems to have found his purest voice as an
autobiographer. Aké: The Years of Childhood is a memoir of stunning
beauty, humor, and perception--a lyrical account of one boy's
attempt to grasp the often irrational and hypocritical world of
adults that equally repels and seduces him. Soyinka elevates brief
anecdotes into history lessons, conversations into morality plays,
memories into awakenings. Various cultures, religions, and
languages mingled freely in the Aké of his youth, fostering endless
contradictions and personalized hybrids, particularly when it comes
to religion. Christian teachings, the wisdom of the ogboni, or
ruling elders, and the power of ancestral spirits--who alternately
terrify and inspire him--all carried equal metaphysical weight.
Surrounded by such a collage, he notes that "God had a habit of
either not answering one's prayers at all, or answering them in a
way that was not straightforward."
In writing from a child's perspective, Soyinka expresses youthful
idealism and unfiltered honesty while escaping the adult snares of
cynicism and intolerance. His stinging indictment of colonialism
takes on added power owing to the elegance of his attack. He also
spears Nigeria's increasing Westernization, its movement toward
modernity and materialism, as he describes his beloved village
markets deteriorating from a "procession of magicians" to rows of
"fantasy stores lit by neon and batteries of coloured bulbs" where
the "blare of motor-horns compete with a high-decibel outpouring of
rock and funk and punk and other thunk-thunk from lands of
instant-culture heroes."
The book closes with an 11-year-old Soyinka preparing to enroll
in a government college, declaring it "time to commence the mental
shifts for admittance to yet another irrational world of adults and
their discipline." Aké is an eloquent testament to the wisdom of
youth. --Shawn Carkonen
