Poetry collection
Poetry collection
Adesanya's debut poetry collection titled Musings of a Tangled Tongue was published in 2016 by Kiibaati Resources Limited to rave reviews. It contains 54 poems over sixty pages. The collection has been described as "a debut publication that invites readers on a poetic journey paved with goofiness, love dealings and dilemma, child-rearing and childhood, supplication, existential musings, corporate chaos, mischiefs and misadventures, and outright naughtiness." According to one reviewer, it is "witty, it's irreverent, it's relatable, and most importantly, it is refreshing."
