Roving Heights to Host Book Reading of ‘Moonbeam’

Nigeria’s top-most local book chain store, Rovingheights, will host a book reading and book signing of ‘Moonbeam’ on April 11, 2026, in Lagos.

The publication is a collection of stories written by fifteen of Nigeria’s top culture journalists, including Abubakar Adam Ibrahim, Adeniyi Kunnu, Akeem Lasisi, Anote Ajelourou, Evelyn Osagie, Gregory-Page Nwakunor, Henry Akubuiro, Jahman Anikulapo, Molara Wood, Nehru Odeh, Okechukwu Uwaezuoke, Sam Omatseye, Sumaila Umaisha, Terh Agbedeh, and Toni Kan. It is edited by former Arts Editor of The Guardian and author, Anote Ajelourou, and published by Narrative Landscape Press.

In crafting the stories, the journalists stepped out of their daily routine as journalists to draw deeply from their creative wells and explore narratives that are real and relatable.

Veering from the poignant to the bizarre, and from the reflective to the heart-wrenching, these stories capture a distinct shade of the human experience.

An insightful aspect of the publication is its relatability to the human experience, where there are no easy answers, no moral conclusions, or tidy resolutions.

“ ‘Moonbeam’ offers a vivid, unflinching gaze into life as it is: beautiful, broken, bewildering. Written with honesty, humour, and style, ‘Moonbeam’ is a memorable anthology that shows us the many shades of what it means to be human. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with the authors and fellow readers at our event,” said the publisher.
