Böcker av Adesiyan Oluwapelumi

""Pelumi, via his ingenious contortion of language, takes us on ajourney between the complexities of selfhood, faith and longing,before landing us at a confluence as he carefully [but withintentionality] steers through the tide of lyrics and metaphors.Ethos is an unputdownable gem - a speculation with mythologyand religion and clarity from an inexplicably genius teenagepoet!"- Muhammed Sanni Olowonjoyin, Winner of the DawnPoetry Prize (2023)"We hate poetry that has a palpable design on us". This is a linefrom one of John Keat's most famous letters. What Adesiyan'spoetry does, however, is the reverse- it works its way throughus, neatly, in a tone that is both relatable and daring. ETHOS isa reflection of resistance and yet, of yielding, to everything thatone's self has become or is becoming. What Adesiyan has doneis to ask those questions we are most scared of asking. This is achapbook I will come back to, again and again.-Chiwenite Onyekwelu, Author of EXILED"
