Dark Rhythms is another of Wellington Nwogu's classic, sterling and enthralling collection of poems; a vivacious verse of spanking new metaphors which tells of the agonizing situation of a people pummelled by pain, whose mouths sing of soured songs. Nwogu has carved a niche for himself which announces that he is one of the prodigious African poets that compels the attention of many readers, among other writers of his generation."
