Consider the names. Fagunwa’s characters have descriptive names like "Akara-ogun" (War-ration) or "Olohun-iyo" (Lord of Salt). Soyinka sometimes retains them, sometimes anglicizes them, and at other times invents new compounds. More significantly, Soyinka translates the dense tonal music of the original into rhythmic, alliterative prose. Where a less confident translator might flatten Fagunwa’s exuberance into plain text, Soyinka amplifies it. He understands that the forest is supposed to be disorienting. By using a baroque, untamed English—full of curses, sudden poetry, and archaisms—Soyinka ensures that the non-Yoruba reader experiences the same sense of encountering a powerful, alien intelligence that a Yoruba reader of Fagunwa would experience.
