a great collection of stories that really made me sad. like actually made me very very sad. that’s how i know it was great.
the stories, whilst often sharing similar themes, continually produced interesting characters and plots, and also managed to display a wide variety of life for gay men in Nigeria. the contrasts between nuclear families and taboo relationships were beautifully done, and the writing was captivating in its emotion.
all in all, a beautifully pensive piece of queer literature.
