THE NEW BOOK REVOLUTION
The reading culture is fast reaching its bloom stage in Africa. The continent had produced some very fine authors in the past; Chinua Achebe and his likes who are either dead or are fast aging. The question that had been posed by many watchers was "what future does the continent have for literary work?" The question had failed to get answers until much recently with the reawakening of a new generation of author who are trying to create their niche in the world scene.
The sudden reawakening of writers and an increasing desire to read by Africans has propelled a new wave in the publishing industry. The publishing industry is fast growing especially with a new generation of non-conformal publishing houses who are behind this wave.
