Publisher's Synopsis
Two years ago, we embarked on a journey to discover Africa's most promising writers. Our debut Anthology of African writing was incredibly successful, winning multiple awards. This reassured us that there was in fact an audience for Africa's voices. It spurred us on to discover more obscure writers and provide a platform for voices who otherwise never would've been traditionally published. This year we received 564 submissions from 23 countries.
In this year's collection, we sought stories that explored the human condition, particularly stories that advocated for traditionally underrepresented voices. Within these pages, you will find an exploration of the human experience, woven through the threads of emotion, discovery, and introspection. Each story is a testament to the power of storytelling, offering a glimpse into the lives of intriguing characters and the worlds they inhabit.
