Afro Surrealism, Poetry & Black Identity with Nick Makoha

Poet and playwright Nick Makoha joins Carolynn to talk about one of the most-discussed books in the past few years. 📚
Welcome to The New Black Canon: 100 Books To Read Before You Die - a brand-new podcast from Afrori Books about the books that shape us, and the stories that deserve a place in our collective cultural memory.
This isn't your average book club chat: it’s a conversation about the books that have changed the way we see the world; a bold reimagining of the literary canon.
