Africa Writes is the UK’s leading platform curating the best contemporary African and African diaspora writing. As part of Exeter’s UNESCO City of Literature programme, we’ve been working to establish an Exeter-based edition of the festival. This launched in 2020 with the Africa Writes – Exeter digital book club, and now returns with an exciting literary weekend offering a blended programme of online and in-person events.Africa Writes – Exeter is brought to you by the Royal African Society and Saseni! working in partnership with the University of Exeter, local independent bookshop Bookbag and Roots Resistance.
