Jide Badmus Showers Praises On Naimah And Iliya’s Chap Book, “A Cult Of Fireflies”.

As the African poetry community anticipates the newest poetry collection from the table of Naimah Abdullahi and Iliya Kambai Dennis titled “A Cult Of Fireflies” set for release on the 4th December, 2024, Jide Badmus, one of Africa’s finest poetry export has declared it a lovers devotional.

“There are many ways to read “A Cult of Fireflies”— the best, in the company of a lover, a private picnic in a lush garden under the sun. Because each poem is a box of sweet, each stanza, a smile unwrapped, each line, a glass of wine.

The beauty of this collection is in the seamless synergy between the authors—the harmony of voice & the intersection of style. It is a textbook of devotion—one all lovers should read.”

Jide Badmus is an engineer, a poet inspired by beauty and destruction; he believes that things in ruins were once beautiful.

Author of There is a Storm in my Head ; Scripture; Paper Planes in the Rain; Paradox of Little Fires; Silk Psalms; Anatomy of the Sun (and everything beneath); Lust Alphabets; and Obaluaye (FlowerSong Press, 2022). What Do I Call My Love for Your Body, forthcoming from Roaring Lion Newcastle (September 2022). He has a Pushcart Prize nomination.
