Yékú demonstrates how the politics of both conservative and liberal polarization imbricates to shape what can or cannot be said in online commentaries on African literary forms. This book challenges utopian framings of the digital by exploring how algorithms engender a culture of outrage, conflict, and personality-driven battles that distract from aesthetic considerations of literary texts.
