Description
Africanfuturism: An Anthology, published in October 2020 by Brittle Paper, is the first anthology to directly engage with the concept of africanfuturism — a term coined by Nnedi Okorafor to describe science fiction rooted in the African world.
The anthology features eight original science fiction short stories, plus an introduction by Wole Talabi and a reprint of Nnedi Okorafor’s definition of africanfuturism. The authors include: Nnedi Okorafor, T.L. Huchu, Dilman Dila, Rafeeat Aliyu, Tlotlo Tsamaase, Mame Bougouma Diene, Mazi Nwonwu, and Derek Lubangakene.
The anthology was a finalist for the 2021 Locus Award for Best Anthology.
The anthology is available for free download on the Brittle Paper website.
