Beyond Nigeria: Voices Across the Continent

Africa is fifty-four countries, and this shelf is our reminder that the fiction is too. A Sudanese epic told through seven voices during the Mahdist revolution, a Kenyan road novel that follows Ethiopian musicians home, a Nairobi noir that moves at the speed of the city, and a Ghanaian writer's manifesto on pleasure and freedom. These are the books we reach for when someone says they've read the Nigerian canon and want to keep going.
