The Old Drift by Namwali Serpell is #CurrentlyOnOurBedside... Have you read it? 🏞️📚

Up now, we have a Q&A with Abubakar Adam Ibrahim (@abubakarwrites) by @uniofexeter students Yasmine Arasteh, Skye Frewin & Sally Wright. They discuss all things Dreams and Assorted Nightmares, liminal spaces, the history of Nigeria, @masobebooks, and more!

Celebrating #WorldPoetryDay, @ndukaotiono & @uche_peter_umez share news of the African release of poetry anthology Wreaths For A Wayfarer (@narrativelscape). The collection is edited by Otiono & Umezurike & published to honour the memory of writer, academic, & mentor, Pius Adesanmi. Link in our bio! Ft. extracts from the collection and info about an upcoming ACCUTE event.

We are eagerly awaiting the official English-language release of Véronique Tadjo's (@veroniquetadjo) In the Company of Men this Thursday 15th April by @hoperoadpublishing. Drawing on real accounts of the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, this poignant, timely fable reflects on both the strength and the fragility of life and humanity’s place in the world. In a series of moving snapshots, Tadjo illustrates the terrible extent of the Ebola epidemic.

Make sure you catch up on the latest African literary and cultural news from March in our wrap! Link is in our bio to read 💫💫
