The Dichotic Dilemma: The Fabric Of Life

The Dichotic Dilemma is an exploration of life through the poetry and prose of a

young man of African descent trying to figure out the complex world he was born

into. In the book, Raleigh Chiwuta analyses his own poems which he wrote over a

period of time of deep contemplation trying to figure out the world and what life

meant to him. His discovery and conclusion was this idea of the Dichotic

dilemma which is the central concept and title of the book. A concept which

helped him find peace in his life and mind from the angst and indignation he felt

from the issues of racism, war, injustice and the sheer difficulty at times of being

a human being. Raleigh Chiwuta hopes that through his own journey, readers

can find peace in their own lives.
