My essay on Agarau's Years of Blood is out!

"The Years of Blood examines socially prevalent challenges—ritual killings, witchcraft, kidnapping, and everyday violence—through a syntax that heightens the book’s aural and visual appeal, rendering the region increasingly dystopian"

[ASAP/Journal @ASAP_Journal]

Out now!

@eniola_abdulroq reviews Adedayo Agarau: “Unlike his contemporaries, the blend of real and imagined events/entities in The Years of Blood pushes the poetics beyond real-life catastrophes, hinting at a certain level of traditional sensibility.”
