Abstract

This paper is a post-colonial study of the socio-political, economic visions and themes in Araceli Aipohâ€™s No Sense of Limits (2005). The study is an examination of Nigerian society and the lifestyle of people, especially the rich and famous, characterized by deceit, success, passion, mischief, betrayal and quest for revenge. It also establishes the basis for the continued prevalence of the themes of violence, corruption, injustice, disillusionment, decadence and disintegration in contemporary Nigerian literature, in spite of the transformation and change in the socio-political setting of the State. Araceli Aipoh re-enacts in detailed graphic imagery, the high and low of life in Lagos as it affects the rich and the poor, whose individual quest for revenge, love, self-actualisation and accomplishment, and survival leads to pain, sorrow, disillusionment, betrayal and the finality of life â€“ death. The study is significant because it is a critical exegesis of the text in terms of the writerâ€™s visions and themes, thus it examines how creative and powerful these visions and style are. It reveals the modern Nigerian culture as it has been greatly influenced by neo-colonialism and capitalism. Hence, Aipohâ€™s novel is recommended with assurance to anybody who desires to take a look at the â€˜soft lights and high lightsâ€™ of Nigerian life. The method of practical textual criticism is adopted in the study.
