The River Tent Is Broken

Palesa Motsomi, the genius behind the cover design here is my u su g heroine. Those of you who know the history of Heinemann African Book series, will know why we chose the orange colour here. And those who read Achebe's books, the editor of those books, whose book titles were mostly chosen from the verses of English and Irish poets shall also understand the reasoning behind this title.

In the words of Lila James, as we take you back we move you forward. We stand on the shoulders of the giants they came before us👏🏾✊🏾👊🏾🙌🏾
