PLEASE NOTE: This book is a Print On Demand (POD) title, which is non-returnable and requires a non-refundable 50% deposit. The deposit will be taken as soon as we receive your order, and will be applied to the final cost of the book once it arrives.

WHAT IS A PRINT ON DEMAND BOOK?

A Print On Demand (POD) book is, as the name implies, printed by the publisher on demand, meaning the books are made to order for the customer.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Due to the nature of POD books, they are non-returnable to the publisher. Therefore we require a non-refundable deposit in the amount of 50% of the cost of the book before we submit the order to the publisher. This deposit is then applied toward the final cost of the book once it arrives. All Print On Demand books are final sale.

We should also note that due to the nature of print on demand titles, the quality of the book can differ from that of a regular book, in that sometimes in the event of older material it can appear like a scan or photocopy, or occasionally have an unappealing design, layout, or typeface.

Once the POD book is ordered it typically takes about 2-3 weeks to receive your copy at the store, at which point we would charge your credit card for the balance owing (minus the deposit already charged) and, depending on which option you chose at checkout, contact you regarding shipping or to let you know the order is ready for pick-up.

By adding a Print On Demand title to your cart and completing the checkout process, you agree to our terms and conditions.

If you have any questions about Print On Demand books, please contact your nearest McNally Robinson bookstore.

*Note: These terms and conditions do not apply to Print-On-Demand titles that are currently in stock at one of our bookstores.

Description

In poet-author Bola Opaleke’s collection, A Note From Hell, readers will discover pieces written as far back as the author’s high school days when the force of adolescence made the fire of dreams burn ever so violently— moments when huge dreams were built. The book reveals life’s realities, both the good and the bad, touching on themes that are relevant and common to everyone, but oftentimes overlooked. They are wittingly woven to reveal truths and to usher hope and inspiration to everyone’s heart.

Bola Opaleke was born in Ede, a village on the banks of River Osun in the western part of Nigeria. He attended the renowned Obafemi Awolowo University where he graduated with honors. Upon his relocation to Winnipeg he acquired a diploma in Addictions and Community Service. A number of his poems and essays were published in his undergraduate days and he has been privileged to deliver speeches at seminars and workshops. In 2012, his poem “Love Never Again,” was published by World Poetry Movement in the book Stars in Our Hearts. His work prominently features the abject poverty of Africa and the eroded societal values and culture. Opaleke would like to appreciate his parents, Albert and Hannah Opaleke, for making him the man that he should be.
