My novel DEATH OF THE AUTHOR is a Time Magazine “Must-Read Book of the 2025”, 🥰.
I’m pleased that they at least said the genre is “hard to pin down” (that’s an understatement because the novel contains multitudes).

China dominates the narrative on Africa’s urban development — but what about Turkey? In Maputo, Turkish construction firms are quietly reshaping the city, largely unnoticed by researchers. Not all of these companies are here for fun—many of them are run by exiles linked to the Gülen movement.

It’s always a joy to be in an academic space. I can discuss africanfuturism as opposed to defend it.
In academic spaces, I can finally move past the basic (you get a lot more time to discuss other things when you don’t spend it all rehashing definitions).
