Cover Reveal: Giving Flowers — Celebrating the Voices of African Women Writers

Two days before International Women’s Day, we are thrilled to unveil the cover of Giving Flowers, an anthology edited by Francisca Okwulehie that brings together the powerful, diverse, and unforgettable voices of thirteen African women writers.

This anthology was created to honour the stories women carry, stories of courage, resilience, joy, identity, growth, and truth. 

Each contribution adds to a collective celebration of women’s voices, offering insight, inspiration, and the shared experience of storytelling.

Giving Flowers is more than just a book. It is a tribute to women telling their stories and offering flowers to one another through the power of storytelling. Every story in this anthology is a testament to the creativity, wisdom, and strength of African women writers.

From personal essays to reflective fiction pieces, each piece illuminates a unique experience while contributing to a larger conversation about womanhood, identity, and resilience.
