Ex Marginalia: Essays from the Edges of Speculative Fiction edited by Chinelo Onwualu

In Ex Marginalia, 20 authors of speculative fiction explore what it means to create at the intersections of their multiple marginalities. A gay man pens a letter to his departed muse, an African woman ruminates on the end of a marriage, a Filipino writer defends romantic villains.

These essays chart identities and perspectives systematically excluded by a field that has failed to deliver on its promise of progress. But these voices cannot—will not—remain in the margins any longer.
