© 2024 The Icarus Complex
Description
Ever wondered what goes through the mind of some men and why we sometimes do the things we do? Described as ‘Adrian Mole’ meets ‘Bridget Jones’, ‘The Icarus Complex’ is a love, sorry and goodbye letter to that ‘one, or those who got away’ from the perspective of a black male trying to navigate life in the UK and is equally a candid, reflective, humorous, but undoubtedly honest, heartbreaking and never before told account about the high and lows of relationships, suppressing / dealing with emotion and the pitfalls of having too much pride.
