Vagabonds! by Eloghosa Osunde

dark emotional hopeful mysterious sad tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

A mixture of a concept novel and an anthology, Vagabonds is a contemporary exploration of everyday people in Lagos who want to break free from the social norms established in the city.  

Eloghosa Osunde uses myth, fable, and lyrical prose to do this and gives a voice to women, queer people, the poor, and the corrupt in the process.
This one's going to stick with me and it's got one hell of an ending.

Loved this one.
