**Independently Publisher Pvt Ltd. is the publisher, and Tade ipadeola is the [author](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/93621/who-authored-the-book-wild-and-wilful-tale-of-15-iconic-indian-species). The book will be released on July 18, 2021.**

The **Sahara Testaments**, which was released in **2013** to great acclaim, has become a classic in **African poetry**. The quatrains have been defined as a metonymy for the experienced reality of the **African continent by [scholar](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/39725/name-the-notable-hindi-scholar-and-writer-who-was-selected-for-the-vyas-samman-award-for-her-novel-dukkham-sukkham) Romanus Egudu**. The text is packed with lyrical **energy, being encyclopedic, ambitious, and imaginative**. The melody reverberates across the centuries, and the imagination soars. **Nathan Suhr-Systema, a [scholar](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/39725/name-the-notable-hindi-scholar-and-writer-who-was-selected-for-the-vyas-samman-award-for-her-novel-dukkham-sukkham), teacher**, and researcher, praised the quality of the writing and the extent of its aim, while **Rotimi Babatunde** and **Benson Eluma** praised the book for its exceptional effort.

As a metonymy, this collection of poetry, the poet's third, covers the vastness and breadth of the **Sahara desert**. It received the **Nigeria Prize for Literature in 2013** and was hailed as **'encyclopedic' by the panel of judges**. The poetry in this collection puts Shelley's argument that poetry is both center and circumference to the test in a wide-ranging investigation of the quatrain.
