by Gboyega Odubanjo (Author)
Gboyega Odubanjo's debut marks the start of an exciting career. His is a voice that draws you in, intrinsically contemporary, grounded in something timeless. With an enviable lightness of touch, he explores themes such as race, mortality and the fallibility of faith--'i believing foolish in the heat of it / assumed sweat was communion / fever god given'. The poems in While I Yet Live beat to a luxurious musicality; prayers and confessions, these are poems to read to yourself aloud.
