Demolition Squad & Other Stories

By Femi Akintunde-Johnson

It took all of thirty years to push out this collection of short stories and a play tagged "a collage of faction - the imaginative deconstruction of real life experiences".
Though Demolition Squad is a work of fiction, the high dosage of facts, real life situations and characters depicted exemplify the dynamics of the contrived literary form cryptically called 'faction'. Stories are wrapped around incidents witnessed by the writer or motivated by his emotional attachments.
These stories make for quick reading, and should resonate with today's adults who were once children of the 70s and 80s. We also hope that younger readers can also relate with the scenarios and sensations contained in the seven stories, and a play.

Femi Akintunde-Johnson

Virtually everybody calls him FAJ... he's been a writer and avid reader since age 11...with a number of journalism, entertainment and other awards confirming he is in the right place. So much to share and engage after 35 years of intense dalliance in the creative industries...during which he founded and published a number of magazines with national spread, and two books, narrating slices of a peculiar life.As he grows older, the itch to write and share more suggests we will be seeing more of his books, God willing. By the way, he is a football addict, crazy about his wife and three children, and lives happily in Lagos, Nigeria. You can reach him on @TheRealFAJ or [e-mail].
