Description

Explore the complex dimensions of speculative storytelling in Narrating African FutureS: In(ter)ventions and Agencies in African and African diasporic fiction. Published by Routledge, this volume examines how different narratives negotiate the concept of the future. Rather than viewing the future as a single path, this work looks at the multitude of competing futures that exist through a cyclical relationship with the past and present. Readers will examine how these futures are made, unmade, remembered, and forgotten. The text investigates the various agencies, interests, and levels of access to power and privilege that shape these stories. It provides a deep look into how African and African diasporic fiction uses storytelling to subvert or affirm different possibilities for what is to come. This is an essential resource for those studying the connections between memory, causality, and the diverse ways futureS are constructed in contemporary literature.
