Of Women, Edges, and Parks: A short story collection

Of Women, Edges, and Parks is a collection of fifteen short stories about queer women in Africa. Each story brings to light different issues queer women in Nigeria, and other African countries, face: from being pressured into unhappy marriages to living with the fear of suffering abuse and violence. It explores themes such as death, feminism, spirituality, sexuality, and loss.

This short story collection is relatable and daring, as it puts words to feelings most women are scared to speak. It was written with the hopes of sparking a sexual and economic revolution among women in Nigeria and Africa at large, for the liberation of queer women and to promote gender equality.
