Instances of Exceptional Moments of Hunger book by Eghosa Imasuen

From the Editor’s note:

“When we gathered in Aburi, Ghana, in August 2024 for the inaugural CANEX Book Factory Creative Writing Workshop, we had a clear purpose: to give emerging African prose writers from the continent and the diaspora a protected space for craft, discipline, and growth.

… This anthology contains nineteen stories, speaking across recurring human pressures: longing, hunger, faith, violence, tenderness, shame, desire, survival, memory. Hunger takes many forms here, and these writers show the restraint and courage to leave a wound open on the page and trust the reader to feel it.”
