Lines from A Night in Rome on a Full Moon
“Mornings don’t erase what happened at night. They echo it.”
“Let’s have a baby.” She didn’t blink. Then smiled… like she’d already seen the future.”
“Sometimes, it’s not the person who haunts you. It’s the version of you they awakened.”
About The Author
Makanjuola .O. Dada is a Nigerian-born storyteller, creative director, sometimes a poet—and always a seeker of emotional truth.
He writes from the places most people run from: silence, heartbreak, the ache of belonging.
His debut work, A Night in Rome on a Full Moon, is a novel-in-verse told over one night of emotional awakening—yet rooted in a lifetime.
It’s a story of karmic love, spiritual longing, unravelling identity, and the search for home—within and beyond the self.
