My Writing Philosophy

Our Vision

We believe that every African story has the power to shape the collective imagination, reveal new perspectives, and ignite universal dialogue.

African literature beyond learning

Our aim is to show the world that Africa is not merely a continent of stories to reflect upon, but an infinite reservoir of stories to be savoured. Stories that can stand shoulder to shoulder with those of any other culture.

Universal dialogue through local narratives

Each story becomes a starting point for intercultural dialogue, reminding us that, despite our geographical or social differences, we share common emotions, fears, and aspirations.

Shaping the collective imagination and changing perspectives

African literature has the power to reverse prevailing narratives by offering new images, new heroes, and new ways of seeing the world.

Beyond the Pages

At Itobe Editions

we are convinced that African literature is the next great global literary movement. Every African story deserves to be told and to shine on the international stage, not only as a legacy of our past, but as a powerful catalyst for our future.
