The Man Died: Prison Notes of Wole Soyinka is a 1972 non-fiction book by Wole Soyinka that explores Soyinka's experiences in prison during the Nigerian Civil War. In 1984, a Nigerian court banned the book. In 2011, The Guardian included The Man Died on their list so of the 100 greatest non-fiction books.
The book, along with Soyinka's You Must Set Forth At Dawn, form the background of a documentary film Ebrohimie Road: A Museum of Memory, written by Nigerian writer and linguist Kola Tubosun about the period of Soyinka's arrest, detention, and the circumstances of his leaving the University of Ibadan for exile in 1972.
