Adeboye Oluwajuyitan (befibrillator) | 1 comments This book covers varying topics, from Racism all the way to falling in love.

It is essentially a prelude to a memoir of mine, 'The Miracle Mind and a World Beneath What we See' which will touch up on many moments of the eight years I spent living in Ukraine as a foreigner as well as my battle with different predicaments in the form of illnesses and others.

The Curtain Raiser is divided into five sections with the first about my frequency; a section that includes a Nigerian poem in Yoruba about how the country will be better as well as poems about Lagos, my mother, Manchester united and others. The second section is about things I dislike, the third is about realities. The fourth is about a love story while the fifth is about a new dawn.

There is a lot of connotation, not just with the words, but also with the bold pictures on all the pages. There is also a poem (a letter) in the Russian language which concludes the section about the love story.
