BLUE BODIES: A COLLECTION OF BLACK-IRISH WRITING AND VISUAL ART by Esther A. Fatoye (Ed.)

176 x 250mm, 54 pages, Colour printing, Perfect bound, Softcover, 2025

Taken from the term 'Daoine gorm', Blue Bodies is a zine for the many faces and forms that shape Black-Irish identity. We released our first issue in October 2023 as a one-off Black  History Month special. We have since decided to bring back the project as a recurring zine. We are working to create an archive of Black-Irish writing and visual art. The 2025 issue of Blue Bodies is a compilation of the work of 17 contributors. It includes poetry, essays, short fiction, and visual art. 

Contributors: Aaliyah André, Aliyat Mustapha, Bridget Kabouet, Daniel Irein, Fiyin Oluokun, Ines Tola, Jane Eris, Lorna Fokam, Oluwatomiwo Adegboro,  Planetwritten, Rosa McGovern, Stéphanie Nzigna, Tami Ajadi,  Temi Idowu, Tobi Olanlokun, Tshegofatso Putu, Whorlasmz.
