This guidebook is a part of a larger book I am currently working and it was written with students that will be sitting for the 2026 to 2030 WAEC, NECO and UTME examinations in mind.
It gives a thorough introduction to Gabriel Okara’s moving poem “Once Upon a Time” will take you on a time travel as you explore the deep themes of lost innocence, cultural deterioration, and the quest for authenticity in a modernizing world.
It goes further to uncover the complex structure and meaning of the poem by delving into the rich tapestry of language and images. Discover the meaning behind the father’s appeal to his kid and his nostalgic thoughts, and how they illustrate the decline of real human connection in contemporary society.
This extensive guidebook will provide you the resources to:
Understand the poem’s ideas and their significant ramifications.
Examine the language, symbolism, and images in the poem.
Recognize how relevant the poetry is in the modern world.
This handbook will offer you the insights you need to completely enjoy Gabriel Okara’s masterpiece, whether you’re a student looking for a better comprehension of the poem or a literary aficionado eager to explore its complexities.
