Archive of essays by Teju Cole for NEXT newspaper. Letters to a young writer. October 27, 2010 • 8:56 pm. Well, if I knew that, I would be so busy collecting prizes that I wouldn’t have time to write to you at all! But let us explore the question. But what, exactly, is voice? Listen to this: Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendía was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice. What can we tell, from the voice, about the kind of story...

Was made, the novel itself was already like a great film, sharply edited, each scene at once luscious and slim. It’s worth learning how to move the camera of your mind’s eye over a written scene, taking note of what a camera would see: the lighting, the small movements, the seemingly insignificant things. Then the decisive action happens and,. Filed under: letters to a young writer.

Archive of essays by Teju Cole for NEXT newspaper. Letters to a young writer. October 27, 2010 • 8:52 pm. My dear aburo,. Let me confess something to you, my friend: I have spent hours and hours reading interviews with authors. There’s hardly an author who interests me, however faintly, that I haven’t read an interview by. I shudder to think of the total amount of time that I’ve sunk into this quixotic quest. In newspapers, space restrictions and the need to catch the attention of the general reader go a...

Archive of essays by Teju Cole for NEXT newspaper. Letters to a young writer. October 27, 2010 • 8:54 pm. My dear aburo,. I am not expressing a mere favoritism for the city of my youth although, like the poet Odia Ofeimun, I’ll confess to being a bit of a Lagos chauvinist. I am describing an objective reality: things are happening here. Where are you right now? Look outside the window. What is the built environment like? Who makes money from it formally? Who makes money from it informally? The answer is ...

Sunday, November 11, 2012. 3 Years already . . . We'll be marking the 3rd year since you physically left tomorrow. Some people say "smile he has gone to a better place and he is still with you." Maybe in another 50 years if I'm still around, I'll finally accept this but right now as each day passes, when a memory is triggered, all I can think of is how it could have happened. I miss you dad, 3 years down hasn't made it any less painful that your gone. January 24, 2013 at 6:26 PM. Promote your Page too.
