Books written at the intersection of myth, memory, and the market.
Vakcho Publishing is the literary house of The Anyanwu Company. We publish works that refuse easy categories — novels that are also philosophy, novellas that are also music, essays that are also protest songs.
The Series — Five Volumes
Our first title, the first volume of the Stand-In Universe, is in preparation. The series spans five books and thirteen years of real time, ending at FESTAC 2039 — the fiftieth anniversary of the Second World Black and African Festival of Arts and Culture.
We believe the book is still the most radical object in the world. A text that refuses to buffer, refuses to be skipped, refuses to be served by an algorithm. Vakcho books are for readers who still believe in the page.
The series concludes at FESTAC 2039 — the Second World Black and African Festival of Arts and Culture, Lagos, Nigeria.
