African Book Club Titles

Hosted and curated by writer and professor Faith Adiele, the African Book Club is dedicated to reading and promoting 21st century literature by and about Africans. MoAD has partnered with the African Book Club since fall 2019, though the book club first began in 2016. Though the majority of the selections have been written in English, the African Book Club champions Africa’s diversity by seeking out female and LGBTQ voices, newer literary genres like Afro-Futurism, Young Adult, and Mystery, and representation from all regions, including translations from the Arabic, French and Portuguese.
