This is a really unique collection of stories. I have to admit it started with quite the bang with the first story. Most collections of short stories have a theme, but the only thing tying these stories together is that the authors are from Africa. I love that so many of the authors are debut authors and I’m glad to see some new fresh voices getting a more wide spread publication. I found a couple of the stories to drag a little, but overall I felt they were well chosen and powerful. I really loved the way a few of them blended the supernatural pieces in a way that still felt realistic. I thought the diverse ways he stories were told were also good. One story is told all through emails from one friend to another. Another is told with narration and Facebook posts and comments. I think my personal favorite was Old Photographs because it is such a fascinating concept. A young girl wants to learn more about her father and finds a strange picture frame with a picture that she is sure is of him, but what she learns is more than she could have imagined.
