Notable critics, including Sunday Anozie and Robert Morsberger, have branded Christopher Okigbo's Labyrinths as allusions to the Nigerian crisis of 1965, as well as Igbo traditional religion, the historical and personal idiosyncrasies, and as a literary work from Theocritus and Vergil to Howl. This article veers from such imputations into a hitherto less trodden ground. It subjects the mind of the persona in Labyrinths -from 'Heavensgate' to 'Limits' and 'Silences', and from 'Distances' to 'Path of Thunder' to behavioural patterns. The article concludes that the behavioural patterns not only define how the mind works imaginatively, but that the very imagination wrought in obscurities methodically defines madness.
