Description
Speculative fiction from Africa. Edited by Billy Kahora.
This book asks the question of what the future will bring to Africa and its people. Could it be shiny metropolises and flying cars? Could it be a gender war? Will the Homo sapiens be overthrown by new and smarter races, mixed from androids and humans? Will love, pride, friendship and fear be what we care about and struggle with tomorrow?
In this anthology African writers explore the unknown territory of the future and set their stories in an African environment 500 years from now.
"The articles and contributions in this publication show us that literature not only engages the reader, but also gives narrative to notions such as future, hope and longing. The works also give space to the doubts and hesitations about the future and what it might bring." Bertan Selim, Prince Claus Fund.
"The future is bright - the future is scary: This book has every version of it. It's fun, it's tragic, it's wildly imaginative and full of crazy and clever ideas." Trine Andersen, The Right Mind of Elinor Mark.
"A daring and brilliant collection of short stories." Beatrice Lamwaka, Caine Prize author.
