Book Review: Through the Gates of Thought

Introducing a stimulating brand new book: Through the Gates of Thought



Through the Gates of Thought is an eclectic collection of stories, articles, poems,
which touch various aspects of everyday life.

In Through the Gates of Thought, the author writes about everyday events, common
thoughts, normal issues - but with a style that distils the key essence of life's
lessons. Read the articles, get entrapped in the emotions of the poems, travel with
him in the stories of his life and others. You will feel that these are your
thoughts as well! The stories will cause you to pause and think, think and reflect,
reflect and take action – an action for a positive change. Through these, the author
seeks to affect his society, community, continent – one mind at a time.
Released in April 2010 and published by Athena Press London (www.athenapress.com),
Through the Gates of Thought is available on Amazon US, Amazon UK, and on other
online outlets.

Soon to be available in Ghana.

Book Blurb

Once again, Nana Awere Damoah has a splendid achievement to his name in this, his
second book of stories, articles, aphorisms and poetry. His style is graphic,
entertaining and indisputably Ghanaian. Whether he is lauding the efforts of his
countrymen, exhorting everyone to thoughtfulness and faith, deploring the
politicisation of local issues or making astute comments on his schooldays, he is
frank and 'in your face' Seriously funny, amusingly instructive and liberally
Christian, Damoah offers insights from many sources and hope for the future for his
pioneering homeland. He has, like some clever spider in folklore, spun a glittering
web of words in our path, trapping many tasty ideas. These we can consume at our
leisure, through the gates of thought.
