This book is so special, beautifully written, and honest. A tale of manhood, fatherhood, and personhood, through the lens of 3 Nigerian men who had spent their lives struggling to know themselves. A story of love, and how it really doesn’t come easy when you have lost so much. Thank you Okechukwu Nzelu

This novel charts the unspoken and often covert relationships between various queer characters, with London serving as a backdrop to brewing tensions.

The stress of this is almost made physical by the presence of one of our central characters, whose regular migraines seem to be a physical reaction to the strain of keeping secrets.

As the story unravels, we find out more about the various intricacies of these relationships, coming towards what I thought was a tender and beautiful end.

I received an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
