Clinical Blues (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798837422539)

Clinical Blues is a moveable feast of ideas, recollections, aspirations and apparitions of desire in the collective but submerged consciousness of the new Africa. Shortlisted for both the inaugural Melita Hume prize and Erbacce prize in manuscript form, the eventual publication of Dami Ajayi's Clinical Blues in 2014 was a watershed moment in contemporary African poetry. Awarded the second runner prize of ANA Poetry Prize and longlisted for the Wole Soyinka Prize for African Literature, it was also selected as one of the TIA 100, Best Books 2010-2014. Clinical Blues sits at the beginning of what has been retrospectively described as Dami Ajayi's "trilogy of affection" that continues with his volumes, A Woman's Body is a Country and Affection & Other Accidents.
