What’s Jess Reading Earlier this week, I finished Africa Is Not a Country: Notes on a Bright Continent by Dipo Faloyin. Africa is often portrayed as one vast safari landscape when, in reality, it is diverse and varied, urban and rural. Faloyin selected a wide array of topics: colonizers, misguided charity efforts, jollof rice, the Black Panther movie, dictators, and more. I found his narrative nonfiction readable and full of things I didn't know. I like a book that not only makes me think, but lingers. |
