The Protagonist of the EroticA Desk by Emmanuel IdumaIs there any relationship more proverbial than the one between a writer and their desk? The location of laboured love, where words, dreams and fantasies flow from the tip of a pen or tap of a keyboard. Sitting down at his beloved desk, essayist Emmanuel Iduma contemplates the smooth wooden surface, his altar for creating stories. He remembers past kitchen tables, dusty library corners and even, as a child, working atop a collapsible ironing board. From Charlotte Brontë's mahogany davenport to Chinua Achebe's modest bureau, the desks of inspiring authors and poets are uncovered and, in between sentences, t...

Our Favourite ThingsQueenie by Candice Carty-Williams | Our Fave Reads S2 Episode 1Hosts Mofi and Tiese share their thoughts on Candice Carty-William’s novel “Queenie”.
Candice Carty-Williams has written a novel that almost every 20-something-year old black girl can relate to, if not entirely, then in certain aspects. She does an excellent job of depicting a protagonist that is multi-faced and dynamic, one we can’t help but root for.
We share our thoughts on the storytelling and writing- the highs and lows, our favorite characters, why we’re rooting for Queenie, how the author addresses mental health specifically within the Black community, why you should pick this up to read + more.

1-54 Forum1-54 Forum New York 2018 | Dear Photo Lover1-54 Forum New York4 - 6 May 2018 Dear Photo Lover What autonomous thing comes into being when word saunters into image, language being so approximate and superfluous? This is an invocation, an evocative ballad by writer Emmanuel Iduma; a travelogue in response to collages by Frida Orupabo, found sound, and images from a range of sources. The address is made to an ‘intimate stranger’, one who traverses a black Atlantic, mindful of Edouard Glissant’s notion that ‘the landscape of your world is the world’s landscape. But its frontier is open’. Image: ©Katr...
