Is there a chart for African literature? I mean REAL African literature, not merely people of african heritage or Europeans living in Africa or safe westernized stuff like Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Every part of Africa is fine, I'm interested in having an expanse in my knowledge of their different cultures.
