Work Description

This is an excellent introduction to the corpus of writing churned
out by black Africans over the centuries, including the prolific
authors who now dot the continent in recent times. this is a work that
instils pride and satisfaction into every African who has perhaps
pondered the crucial question: as to what the people and the continent
have contributed to global arts and culture in world history?

The author, Ishmael Mzwandile Soqaga is an essayist, author,
pan-Africanist and sports enthusiast based in Mangaung, free state,
South Africa. this is his second book.
