This exquisitely produced book is published by Victoria Miro on the occasion of the exhibition Chris Ofili: The Seven Deadly Sins. Chris Ofili invited seven writers – Hilton Als, Inua Ellams, Marlon James, Anthony Joseph, Ayanna Lloyd Banwo, Attillah Springer, and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye – to contribute new writing. Like Ofili’s paintings, their poems and narratives are not confined to illustrating single sins but meditate, personally and expansively, on sinfulness.
