Are we finally in the “Soft Life” era of African literature?

Lindsey Collen’s *The Rape of Sita* was banned within days of its publication in #Mauritius. Her harrowing, compelling novel explores issues surrounding sexual assault that extend far beyond Mauritius’s borders. https://t.co/xqQVQlJLwS #ReadAfricanWriters #54
