The book read 'round the world!
| Read more →2016 was a memorable year for many reasons, filled with strikes and gutters (as they say in the parlance of our times). We're going to run through some of our highlights of the year.

On the heels of the Pygmalion Festival in Champaign, Illinois, we took Masande Ntshanga on what we jokingly referred to as the "Silicorn Valley" Tour throughout much of Iowa. This included pit stops in Fairfield, and events in East Davenport, and Iowa City.

I am currently along for the ride on Masande Ntshanga's U.S. book tour for The Reactive. Last Saturday, we were exchanging and discussing music videos in our hotel room over some classy-shitty American beer. He showed me the beautiful and redemptive video for the song, "Never Catch Me."

Author of The Reactive, Masande Ntshanga, has been tearing across the Midwest since starting his U.S. book tour in New York last weekend.

This weekend we'll be attending The Pygmalion Festival in Champaign-Urbana, IL for the second year in a row! Joining us will be author of The Reactive, Masande Ntshanga.

Get hip to all the events we'll be at this September!

It's always a long road from acceptance to publication, so it's nice to take a step back on a book's publication day and say, well lookie here, we made something. Today that something is an incendiary and powerful debut novel called The Reactive, by South African writer Masande Ntshanga.

Late Night Library's host, Sean Aaron Bowers, expresses his fascination with opening lines of novels in his podcast about THE REACTIVE with author Masande Ntshanga. I have listed three memorable opening lines that come to mind for me!

Masande Ntshanga's powerful debut novel The Reactive officially drops June 5th, but copies are in stock NOW—get excited!
