The Vex Association’s Book Party

Join us for a conversation with bright writers, readings, music, and book partying in the finest style with Scrabble, Jenga and other games, and colour-coded dating, with a decidedly Black Atlantic vibe; this month come converse with with one of Africa’s bright poetic lights, Dami Ajayi, discussing and reading from his third and most recent collection of poems, Affection & Other Accidents – The end of a romantic relationship is at the heart of this collection, and the poems in it explore the poet’s inner thoughts as much as they bear witness to the five cities and three continents across which the relationship unravels. Inadvertently, politics, both local and global, including George Floyd’s murder and the Covid-19 pandemic, seeps into these lyrical poems styled like a 90s R&B LP record and punctuated with poetic interlogues.
