“These spare poems thrust us into self-examination, fellowship, celebration. They are stylistically adventurous. Conscientious and erotic, Adura Ojo’s work attacks whatever threatens full personhood and pleasure… Mania’s charged tonality seethes with defiance. I like this book.“

— Uche Nduka, author of Author of ‘Author of Living In Public and Facing You‘
