Explanation:

It is one of those experiences that Ben Okri survived through, which mostly reflected in his works. Okri's version of a narrator who is trying to look out for people that matter to him and his surrounded beings, whether alive or dead, is the most hear-wrenching works that readers can read. The kind of expression, symbolism and prediction used by Okri to describe situations and attitudes of people makes us understand that this is a part of the world that we must always try to avoid and try to opt for peace.
