In Sacrament of Bodies Romeo Oriogun interrogates what it means to be queer, male, and Nigerian. In this groundbreaking work, Oriogun seeks to understand how a queer man can heal in a society where everything is designed to prevent such restoration. He explores the paradox of death ending pain while leaving the living with unanswered questions and reflects on the role class plays in survival and the father-son relationship. Ultimately, Orioguns poems deal with grief and how the body finds survival through migration. Sacrament of Bodies examines queerness in Nigerian society, masculinity, and the place of memory in grief and survival. About the Author Romeo Oriogun was born in Lagos, Nigeria. He is the author of the chapbooks Burnt Men , The Origin of Butterflies , and Museum of Silence . He was the winner of the 2017 Brunel International African Prize and has received fellowships from Harvard Universitys English Department, the IIE-Artist Protection Fund, Oregon Institute for Creative Research, and the Hutchins Institute of African and African American Research.
