Ponmo Is a Bird That Has No Place in a Cultured Culinary Sky & Other Stories

Description

Ponmo Is a Bird That Has No Place in a Cultured Culinary Sky and Other Stories is a collection of eleven December love stories, where love is fleeting, forbidden, unexpected, and maddening. From the quiet frustration of unreturned affection in A Quiet Heartbreak, to love blooming at a funeral in Stardust, to the dangerous comfort of a best friend’s fiancée in Ka Mashabe, and the strange pull of fate in A Small Accra Theory, these stories capture the chaos and beauty of love in December. On crowded streets, at loud parties, in private moments and impossible situations, love arrives as it always does, unexpected and unapologetic. This anthology is the third volume of the Love in Detty December series, curated by Noisy Streetss Publishing and edited by Angel Nduka-Nwosu., Àjọkẹ́ Bọ́dúndé, and Mofiyinfoluwa O. It is a celebration of contemporary African romantic storytelling and a testament to our shared December experiences.
