To the dismay of her ambitious mother, Bolanle marries into a polygamous family, where she is the fourth wife of a rich, rotund patriarch, Baba Segi. She is a graduate and therefore a great prize, but even graduates must produce children and her husband’s persistent bellyache is a sign that things are not as they should be. Bolanle is too educated for the ‘white garment conmen’ Baba Segi would usually go to for fertility advice, so he takes her to hospital to discover the cause of her barrenness.

Some secrets are deadlier than others

On the night she turned fifty-two, Sayo Dosumu’s car tumbled off Falomo Bridge, killing her instantly. Two years later, her presence still overshadows the lives of those she left behind. When her daughter receives a text message insinuating her mother’s death might have been murder, she is determined to uncover the truth. At a weekly family dinner, she soon discovers that everyone in the family—her billionaire father, his perfect new wife, the party-animal heir, the nerdy last son—has a secret they want to keep hidden, and exposing these secrets would set off a chain of events that challenges everything they thought they knew.

A poet in a new city, a linguist at Primark, a native son meeting a familiar deity in a foreign town, in books, in the faces and voices of strangers, on trains, in the histories that intersect with traumas and pleasures, in flirtations at a bank on Euston road, in food, in contemplations of space, accents, missed connections, and police shootings in Lagos; all as part of one travel experience in the time of a global pandemic. In Èṣù at the Library, Túbọ̀sún returns to his favourite tools of travelogue as a vehicle for the interrogation of memory through the limits of language.
