The Book of Lagos
The autobiography of a city.
Everything I make is one book. A story of characters and gods, of saints and sinners, of witches and paintings and sculptures. Each chapter is a world of its own, and they are siblings rather than a sequence. The book is the frame. The city is the binding.

Chapters standing at one radius around ámá, the word for a town, a city, a nation. Nothing joins them, because nothing should. The order is not numeric: the city remembers out of time. Choose one and it opens where it stands.
