** 56 Years of Nigerian Literature: Adaora Lily Ulasi, bookshy.

## Quotes about Ulasi

* It is clear that she (Ulasi) has produced five mysteries. The novels are indeed mysteries ... set in what Hortense Spillers, in another context, refers to as the "terrain of witchcraft" (1987, 189). In Ulasi, seeing is not always believing or deceptive. Her intriguing genre, the juju novel, appears to be Nigeria's answer to the gothic and magic realism ... Ulasi's terrain covers the occult, dark, impenetrable tropical forests; in short, vestiges of the supernatural world, which proliferate the Nigerian imagination.
** Chikwenye Okonjo Ogunyemi as quoted in 56 Years of Nigerian Literature: Adaora Lily Ulasi, bookshy.
