This was a lovely dive into African Mythology. It made me laugh so hard but it also broke my heart. The plot twists are amazing and I highly recommend the audiobook, the narrator does the most amazing voices!

This was an interesting concept to begin with - poetry about Lovecraft and blackness, an #OwnVoices work. It reads as poetic essays about racism, about life as a black person. I wish the connection between Lovecraft and blackness was clearer and the poetry also felt confusing at times. But it's still a very valuable piece of art that I'd recommend to anyone.
