Ben Okri is a playwright, poet, novelist, essayist, short-story writer, anthologist, and aphorist. He has also written film scripts. His works have won numerous national and international prizes, including the Booker Prize for Fiction. His books include the eco-fable Every Leaf a Hallelujah, the play Changing Destiny, the genre-bending climate fiction Tiger Work, the poetry collections A Fire in My Head and Mental Fight, and the novels Astonishing the Gods, The Last Gift of the Master Artists, and Dangerous Love. In 2023 he received a knighthood for services to literature.
Diana Ejaita was born in Cremona, Italy, and now works as an illustrator and textile designer in Berlin. Through a combination of dramatically contrasting areas of black and white with soft patterns and textures, her illustrations betray the strength of femininity, while paying homage to her Nigerian ancestry.
