Nigerian literature deserves to be seen, shared, and easily accessible.

A note from Mauve

Grace Meda is a Calabar woman who has never met a story she didn't want to hear to the end. Ask her about a book and you'll get the plot, the gossip, the part where she gasped out loud, and a firm opinion about which character was wrong. She loves drama the way some people love sport — with full commitment and a running commentary — and Mauve Books grew straight out of that appetite. She kept looking for the Nigerian novels her friends were reading, in the editions they were actually holding, and couldn't find them in Canada. So she started bringing them over herself.
