Rosewater: Glitch Yarn & Book Club, volume 5

Rosewater by Tade Thompson is a mind-bending science fiction novel set in near-future Nigeria. When a mysterious alien dome emerges, everything humans know about life and consciousness becomes uncertain. 

Packed with cyberpunk influences—neon-lit tech, social rebellion, and moral ambiguity—Rosewater evolves beyond cyberpunk by blending Africanfuturism, bio-punk, and supernatural elements. In Thompson's new future, Africa is at the center of the cosmic unknown, leaving readers questioning reality and craving more. Check out the rest of the series if you enjoyed this one!

In this title's yarn, emerald, cobalt, rust, and grays evoke the lush, chaotic, and otherworldly vibe of the alien-dome landscape, while vibrant speckles evoke the bio-punk energy and complex layers of gritty, futuristic life in Rosewater.

Our next title is Noor by Nnedi Okorafor! Preorders are live from November 15-22, 2024.
