GLORIA OGO
Praise for Bullets for Supper
​
“Bullets for Supper sparks the kind of energy that calls for radical mass action. Glaringly, Gloria Ogo is a writer with a mastery of the language, whose pen congeals blazing anecdotes, wits, and fury, to challenge the staged animality that human lives have been reduced to.”

“One of the most moving pieces I have ever read. The appalling tragedy and subsequent grief was masterfully expressed. Excellent description and imagery. Gloria Ogo is an incredibly talented writer.”

“Ogo effectively captures political oppression through multi-platform perspectives of the damage a country’s failed leadership foists upon her citizens. It is enthralling to read a writer who does not disenfranchise herself from the horror going on around her, while believing that the most damaging result of government oppression is the faith and the culture that oppression drains from its people. Fascinating. Stoked to read all the way through. Gloria is a genuine wordsmith.”

“Well written and descriptive. Gloria Ogo has written a bold and important book, of an important period, that reminds us of the horrors of a time when the youths were willing to scale the precipice to confront the arbitrariness of a government that has consistently failed them for years. Ogo is a beautiful writer.”
