Synopsis

JUMP INTO A COLLECTION THAT JOLTS YOU WITH STORIES AND CHARACTERS THAT EMBRACE THE WEIRD, BIZARRE, AND INSANE.



In this collection of short stories, everyday anxieties unravel into the strange and surreal: a man in Abule, desperate to “hammer” like his peers, risks everything for a shortcut to success; a young woman, weary of the endless pressure to marry, turns to magical matchmaking with unexpected consequences; a greedy man finds himself unable to stop eating, his hunger growing beyond control; and a Lagos-based graphics designer’s simple attempt to get rid of ants spirals into something far more existential. With a sharp wit, keen eye for the bizarre and highly stylised syntax, Ipinmoye reshapes familiar anxieties – ambition, love, survival – into haunting and unexpected narratives. Each story in this eclectic collection is a cold shower – urgent, sharp and unforgettable.
