This was exactly as a short story collection should be- admittedly there were many stories that I didn't love but there were also some really impactful stories which led me to discover authors I might not have otherwise. Particularly, I found the stories by Leila Aboulela, Helon Habila, Segun Afolabi, Henrietta Rose-Innes, EC Osondu, NoViolet Bulawyo and Lesley Nneka Arimah especially powerful and look forward to following their work.
