And two teenagers test a friendship over magic carpet flying practice. These ten breathtaking stories explore natural and urban landscapes, living and dead relationships, economic catastrophe, love, and desire—all while celebrating the persistent and ever-changing self, and envisioning beautiful Black futures. Featuring stories by: Trynne Delaney francesca ekwuyasi Whitney French Aline-Mwezi Niyonsenga Chimedum Ohaegbu Suyi Davies Okungbowa Chinelo Onwualu Lue Palmer Terese Mason Pierre Zalika Reid-BentaGeneral adult.
