“A delightful and inspiring debut . . . Mibs Beaumont and her magically gifted clan from Ingrid Law’s Savvy would feel right at home here. As Felicity loves to say, Yes…yes…yes!”

“In Tender Headed, Olatunde Osinaike asks the question, what makes a man, and what makes a man like me? As he interrogates the inner and outer workings of masculinity in all its sharp and tender parts, and the way a Black man meets the world, his poems strut and duck and weave across their pages. These poems unpack the ingredients of being and make a meal of language.”

~ Camille Rankine, author of Incorrect Merciful Impulses
