🏆 We are thrilled to share that Cassava Republic has been longlisted for the CANEX Prize for Publishing in Africa (@CanexAfrica) with The Mercy Step by @Marciathewriter and The World Was in Our Hands edited by Chitra Nagarajan
💫Congratulations to all the publishers longlisted!

Twenty years ago, Cassava Republic began with a simple belief that African writers deserve the space to tell their own stories. Two decades on, that belief still guides us.

Thank you, @AJEnglish, for telling part of our story as we celebrate 20 years!
