SUMMARY:Pleasant view by Celeste Mohamed and A Broken People’s Playlist by Chimeka Garricks (Book Chat)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Toni Kan will be in conversation with two authors who have painted gritty\, realistic and uncompromising pictures of life in Africa and the Caribbean. \nWritten in a combination of English and Trinidad Creole\, Pleasantview reveals the dark side of the Caribbean dream. In this novel-in-stories about a fictional town in Trinidad\, we see a reality that is far different from the idyll that is often described for tourist consumption. A society where poverty and patriarchy savagely rule and love and revenge often go hand in hand. Celeste Mohammed will discuss her book and the country that it describes. \nA Broken People’s Playlist is an interlinked collection of short fiction set among the denizens of Nigeria’s Port Harcourt and inspired by a playlist of beloved pop songs. With a cast of indelible characters\, the stories are a strong reminder of what it means to be human\, flawed\, complicated\, and sometimes doomed\, but also hopeful for redemption. Chimeka Garricks will be here to chat about what has been called his ‘love letter to his native city’.[/vc_column_text]Register Now[/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Born in Blackness by Howard French and Uncommon Wealth by Kojo Koram (Book Chat)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Kovie Biakolo\, dives deep into our continental history and a possible future with authors Howard French and Kojo Karam. \nThe history of Africa has long been relegated to the outskirts of our global story. However\, in French’s sweeping narrative\, Africa and Africans are centred in a history that reframes the origins of modernity through the story of gold\, tobacco\, sugar and cotton\, and the twelve million people who were brought in chains from Africa to the “New World.” Author Kojo Koram tackles decolonisation\, one of the great global changes of the past hundred years\, in which Britain played a central role. In his book\, he uncovers the scandals of Britain’s colonial past and shows how far-reaching decisions made decades ago are contributing to the forces that are breaking Britain today.[/vc_column_text]Register Now[/vc_column][/vc_row]
