October 18, 2023 | One of the most distinctive and affecting voices in contemporary fiction is that of Arinze Ifeakandu. Born in Kano, Nigeria, in 1995, raised a Christian, and self-identified as queer from a young age, Ifeakandu is an emerging master of the short story (a craft he furthered at the Iowa Writers' Workshop). Not yet 30 years old, he has been awarded a Dylan Thomas Prize, an O. Henry Prize, and is a Kirkus and LAMBDA Award finalist. At Georgetown University, he read from his acclaimed first book, God's Children Are Little Broken Things (2022), and discussed fiction, faith, sexuality, and the present-day Nigeria that is the setting of many of his stories. Paul Elie, senior fellow in the Berkley Center and moderator of the Faith and Culture series, led the conversation.
