My favourite thing about this book- aside it‘s singular embodiment of bravery and freedom- is just how thorough it is. The way it reads like an easy conversation over drinks about navigating queerness as an African man, but with the full dignity of all its nuances and complexities.
It is honest and real in both its social & personal commentary and it is hard not to feel like Edozien ultimately honours us by giving us this work. This truth.
