🚨🚨🚨NEW ANTHOLOGY ALERT🚨🚨🚨

A Gathering of Stories

We wanted to build a world
For characters that had been walking with us for a while
The ones who refused to go after they arrived
Whispering, lingering, chanting, manifesting

Soon, they wanted to be let out as
They insisted on occupying space beyond memory and imagination
And countless silenced drafts
Each started laying down foundations for
A path that emerged as five walkways
to alternative realities

Five multiverses, cascading into one
A Gathering
Of stories that have been dying to be (re)told
And now, they are ready for you in book-form:

In this volume:
Defiance by Eddie Thaba
Djeli by Katlego Chale
Postcards: Bodily Preserves by Refiloe Lepere
The Chanting Youth by Ronald Ronald Votos Manganye
Uncharted by Mxolisi Masilela
Cover art by Khehla Chepape Makgato

These stories have lived with us, and now they are calling to you.

Price: R300
