Praise for Little Rot "Drama, mystery, beautiful clothes, expensive cars, explosive sex...Emezi takes readers to an abyss from which there is no escape."
-Kirkus Reviews "Emezi unspools a web of erotic danger in their entertaining latest...readers in search of a decadent good time will find it here.
"- Publishers Weekly "Multimedia polymath and gender-norm disrupter Emezi. . . examines taboo and trauma in their creative work...Emezi can be counted upon for an ambience of dread and a feverish momentum."
-The Millions "Emezi is a genius, IMHO. . . Super queer, disturbing and unflinching, Emezi's latest will leave you uncomfortably questioning morality, power, sex and, well, humanity as a whole."
- Ms Magazine "Prolific and brilliant multigenre Nigerian author Akwaeke Emezi is back with a novel chronicling the end of a relationship and a sex party that throws its characters into chaos. Read everything Emezi writes!"-
