EDGE OF HERE is a collection of stories that explore contemporary womanhood, with a storytelling sensibility that cleverly combines the modern-day with speculative concepts both ancient and futuristic. From a Black nurse dealing with a white woman whose voluntarily installed ‘Ally-Chip’ (which allows her to feel the emotions of a chosen donor) is malfunctioning, to the Yoruba-influenced tale of a renowned mental health expert who holds a mysterious secret, to a woman who uses a VR-like headset to explore an alternate love-life with the man she bumps into at her son’s school gates, these are stories both unique and timely  in terms of their explorations of our society—past, present and future.
