No Edges represents the first (!) collection of Swahili stories in English translation. Featuring eight East African authors crossing generations and literary styles, this incredible collection will leave you hungry for more: more from these authors, more from the rich traditions of Swahili storytelling, and more Africanfuturist visions.

— From No Edges: Swahili StoriesDescription
Swahili is the future. The first collection of Swahili fiction in English translation, No Edges introduces eight East African writers from Tanzania and Kenya as they share tales of sorcerers, Nairobi junkyards, cross-country bus rides, and spaceships that blast prisoners into eternity. Here we're encouraged to explore the chaos of life on a crowded Earth, as well as the otherworldly realms lying just beyond our reach. Through language bursting with rhythm and vivid Africanfuturist visions, these writers summon the boundless future into being.
