The Corpse Exhibition [and Other Graphic Stories] (August 2016)

2017 Nommo Award for Best Speculative Fiction Graphic Novel by Africans

This issue of Chimurenga’s pan-African quarterly gazette, the Chronic, explores ideas around mythscience, science fiction and graphic storytelling. Like previous editions of the Chronic, this edition is borne out of an urgent need to write our world differently – beyond the dogma of growth and development and the endless stream of future projections released by organisations like the IMF and the World Bank.

Contributors include Native Maqari, Breeze Yoko, Francis Burger, Nikhil Singh, London Kamwendo, Thenjiwe Nkosi, Graeme Arendse, Loyiso Mkize and many others.

To purchase The Chronic: Corpse Exhibition [and Other Graphic Stories] (August 2016), head to our online shop or visit Chimurenga Factory at 157 Victoria Road, Woodstock.
