We are posting another edition of “African Literature on Instagram”— by popular demand! It’s such a fun post to curate because we get to tell the story of contemporary African fiction through images.

[Click HERE if you missed the first edition]

This week, Chris Abani is very much on our minds.

His writings are great, but we have fallen head-over-heels in love with his photographic work.

So we sifted through his expansive Instagram catalogue and came up with a few images that tell us something about literature and the writing life.

Enjoy!

[To keep up with Abani’s social media life, check him out on Instagram, Twitter, and Pinterest. His handle on all three platforms is @chrisabani.]
