We have a review of South Side by Olukorede Yishau

"Adesokan writes with the confidence of a maestro, guiding every word and scene with precision, each moment rising and falling in the perfect rhythm of a language. Simply put, he is a master of the English language. His narrative voice is warm, erudite and steady pulling you into a setting so vivid you can almost live in it."

Read the rest of the review at the Lagos Review.
