      <image:title>Taboo - Read Taboo Now</image:title>
      <image:caption>A small Lagos family goes through a tragic loss, and now, 20 years later, they are looking for answers. A prominent man in society must hide the circumstances of his first wife's death from others. But his cunning, authoritative second wife is suspicious, and his young, and mostly clueless junior wife finds out his secret. What will they do with it? And, just as importantly, what will they do with him? A small family's fate has been tied to a mysterious Mugomo tree for what seems like generations. If they cut it, they might fall with it, but they need to be free. Taboo is a collection of ten poems and short stories, where African writers explore the idea of taboo in cultural expression, behaviour, and artistic forms. We believe that culture sets rules, artists break them, then new culture evolves. And this is how artistic innovation is born. Taboo is our way of breaking the rules set for African writers, bringing you artistic innovation fueled by our identity.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Child who Beat his Mother - About Sunday</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sunday is a writer, poet, an art lover. A student of English and Literature at the University of Benin, and writing has always been a safe space for him to create. Writing to him is creation; creating a universe where his readers could be easily absorbed. More like a time machine, taking them to and from different points in time.  When he's not writing, you'll find him reading or watching movies; the latter, more likely. You can catch him on Instagram @ i.b.h.a.d_</image:caption>
