Over dit e-boek
The book, “The Danger of the Crowd” evokes a feeling of agoraphobia by its title, but upon reading the content, one would be accompanied into a world of anamnesis by a reflective seminarian whose creative mind is second to none. The book is premised in the uniqueness of an individual and his inherent potential of making it to the high echelons of life without necessarily being a man of the crowd; that is, someone whose decisions and actions are being determined by the crowd. Suffice it to say that greatness evolves from singleness, in the right disposition of it; while failure might take its root from the influence of the crowd. By dint of birth, we are launched into the world just as death takes us away from the world. The two events are imperative accounts of our mission here on earth and they are divine calls which must be answered by an individual alone. This makes our individualities a necessary seed to fertilize the larger goal of life, our life’s purpose. Aptly, Izuchukwu Onuh uses eagle eyes to narrate the contemporary challenges in our society which stem from our personal lifestyles and misunderstood self-identities and how these challenges blunt the edges of our social life and make the social system a rotten one. Deploying moving stories and garnished styles of writing, he calls our minds to a life of quietude and solitude, the very state in which God can be encountered and good decisions made. A masterpiece, this book is as timely as it is all-round nourishing, especially in the present Nigerian situation that is challenged daily by noise: many speakers and few listeners. Take this book and do a simple exercise: withdraw from talking and listen to the author’s voice and your own responding voice that would soon form a paragon, a promising breed!
