They also think the time has come to build a new body of African writing that links writers across different time and spaces, following the marvelous example of the African Writers Series in the past. Cassava Republic Press is based in Abuja, which is a bit like the English town Milton Keynes but set in the tropics. It’s a great place to be, with a modern infrastructure, gorgeous landscapes outside the city and all corners of the continent only a few hours flight away. The design bible Monocle Magazine, listed Cassava Republic Press as one of the top ten brands to look out for in 2009. 3 Likes 2 Shares |
