Literary Listography: Ten Gay Characters from African Literature Everyone Should Know

And the wonderful literary lists continue, with Dele Meiji Fatunla and I back with another one - this time on ten gay, lesbian or bisexual characters from African literature we think everyone should know. From Ama Ata Aidoo's Our Sister Killjoy to Diriye Osman's Fairytales for Lost Children, these characters were chosen from literary works we read and loved, and they all have one thing in common - we found them fascinating. So head over to Whats_on Africa, the new events, culture, business and creative economy blog from the Royal African Society, to find out who made it on to our list. Who would be on yours?
