In a collection of 12 short stories, Damilare Kuku demonstrates the almost Sisyphean task that is navigating love, relationships and life in Lagos.
Damilare deftly uses humour and wit to explore the difficult themes of love, loss, friendship and romance, often catching the reader unaware.
As a testament to the universality of these stories, as reader you or someone you know may have encountered one of the mad men Damilare has written about.
Of course the women are not exempt from the afflictions of humanity, many of them being difficult and somewhat exhausting in a node to the realities of the women we do know in our daily life.
Most striking is the depiction of sex and agency displayed by these women particularly in the face of misogyny and patriarchy.
Damilare draws the reader in, using both humour and sensitivity as she explores what it means to live and love in a place like Lagos.
We sat down with Damilare to discuss her break out collection.
