Love Grows Stronger in Death

An AfroAnthology of Creative Non-fiction

A collection of 15 stories exploring how unexplored affections and missed opportunities often resonate more strongly in the face of loss. The anthology, with contributions by some of the finest emerging voices in the literary scene, offers perspectives on love, life, and the enduring human spirit. It delves into the intricacies of relationships and the universal experiences that bind us all.

Reading through this book, you will find yourself drawn into stories that touch the soul, evoking tears of relatable joy and sorrow; you are invited on a poignant journey through the universal human experience. Some other stories go beyond emotional poke, they bring a futuristic and innovative perspective to the subjects of love and loss. As you pick up Love Grows Stronger in Death, you get yourself ready to be transported through different worlds, as is typical of every short story collection, but also brace up as you’re sure to be lost in, invested in, and unable to recover from your experiences of each of these worlds.

The book will be published by Witsprouts Books, an imprint of The Witsprouts Project, to further its mission of creating platforms to foster a deeper engagement in African arts and literature.

Curated by Tope Akintayo and edited by Ibrahim Babatunde Ibrahim and Basit Jamiu, the book is set for release on May 24, 2024, with contributions from Enit’ayanfe Ayosojumi Akinsanya, Roseline Mgbodichinma, Mustapha Enesi, Chinuzoke Chinuwa, Chourouq Nasri, David Ben Eke, Michael Chiedoziem Chukwudera, Chinonso Nzeh, Ayo Deforge, Elisha Oluyemi, Obinna Inogbo, Mohammed Babajide Mohammed, Aishat Adesanya, Miracle Elvis Ifesinachi, and Thirikwa Nyingi.
