Vagabonds!: A Novel Paperback Ed. – by Eloghosa Osunde

Vagabonds! by Nigerian writer and artist Eloghosa Osunde is a daring and lyrical novel that defies convention and pulses with the spirit of Lagos.

Set in a fictional version of Nigeria’s largest city, this work blends magical realism, spirituality, and political commentary to tell the stories of queer, displaced, and oppressed souls—called “vagabonds”—who live on the fringes of society.

Narrated through interlinked tales, the book weaves together the voices of those fighting to exist in a society that marginalizes them.

Osunde’s writing is raw, poetic, and defiant, delivering a unique and necessary African literary experience that challenges norms and reclaims identity and freedom.
