Review Quotes: Shola Adenekan breaks new ground with the first book-length study of digital creative expression in an African context with African Literature in the Digital Age: Class and Sexual Politics in New Writing from Nigeria and Kenya. [...] This book will be a staple not only for African digital literature courses, but for the parent African literature and digital humanities classes. This first monograph-length study of African digital literature should inspire those of us with scholarly interests in the field to expand upon the research done here to look at the nature of digital writing on the continent in competing and complementary ways.-- "Journal of the African Literature Association"
