Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 2
August is a God-fearing track star who leaves Enugu City to attend university and escape his overbearing sisters. He carries the weight of their lofty expectations, the shame of facing himself, and the haunting memory of a mother he never knew. It's his first semester and pressures aside, August is making friends and doing well in his classes. He even almost has a girlfriend. There's only one problem: he can't stop thinking about Segun, an openly gay student who works at a local cybercafé.

Heart-wrenching but necessary story to tell
Revisado: 10-01-23
As heart-wrenching as this story was, I am happy it existed. It is the first time I read a story about queerness and queer love in a Nigerian context, by a Nigerian author. I fell in love with Segun and how he owned himself.
Regarding the performance, I think a better pronunciation effort in the names and places could be made.
