"This important book recognises the ways in which the digital age enables new writerly possibilities and an era of openness, while making legible the agency of new literary voices and sensibilities" James Yékú, University of Kansas, Lawrence

"With this scholarship, he gives shape and substance to African digital literature while deepening understandings of class and sexuality in Kenya and Nigeria. Moreover, Adenekan's deployment of the network as an interpretative framework will prove applicable to other contexts, allowing us to read other regions of African digital production through the affordances of his study." Journal of Postcolonial Writing
