"It Wasn't All Beer & Skittles": One Family's Journey Through Difficult Times
In 1947 Arthur and Peggy Patten finally settled down in Cuttingsville, Vermont. It was the end of a fifteen-year search for the right community. They and their growing family had lived in seven different houses, in different states, since their marriage in 1933 in Newark, New Jersey, including several stints at Peg's Aunt Charlotte's large home in Derby, Connecticut. Along this journey they were helped by relatives and neighbors as they survived financial difficulties, an epidemic and rapid social and economic changes, all of which they documented in frequent letters home and regular diary entries. Art and Peg speak in their own voice, revealing a couple who knew the value of family and community and who exemplify the early Twentieth Century American struggle to find the place they belonged.

Dust, Spittle & Wind is a story of youth, dreams of innocence and transcendence told within a postcolonial setting. It follows Olu Ray, the main character of the novel through a bitter-sweet journey of loss and self-realisation. The novel focuses on the final moment before actual emotional maturity when dreams either become flowers of brilliance or cold ashes. The novel describes the cold hand of fate as it swings between both extremes. Olu Ray eventually survives at the price of the abrupt loss of his innocence. The book teems with colourful characters and the blistering heat of the physical terrain appears to mirrors the lush sexuality on display. It explores the nature of taboo, the frustrations caused by it and the compulsions it provokes. In Sanya Osha's telling, society seems to be on the verge of irreparable breakdown but somehow manages to pull itself back from the abyss. The tension that runs through the novel is relentless but then, there is also much tenderness and subtlety that balances everything out. This is unquestionably a feat of powerful artistry. It deservedly won the Association of Nigerian Authors' Prize for prose in 1992.
