About Us
African Literary Agency is a literary agency working with a premium group of books, authors, and publishers. We have been selecting emerging authors from the African continent for the past ten years, and successfully work with African fiction, Speculative Fiction mainly Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror, Children’s books, and non-fiction.
All the authors we have represented—and continue to represent—have made this journey possible, and I am deeply grateful to each of them. Our mission has always been to share African voices on the global stage, to raise awareness of the imbalance in representation within the international publishing industry, and to do our utmost to bridge that gap.
We tirelessly search for the best match between author and publisher on a global scale. Together with a team of scouts and editors Debbie van der Zande, Caitlin Farley and Martijn Lindeboom, African Literary Agency works to empower African voices in literature, bringing the best stories, from all over the continent, to you.
