Nnamdi Ehirim is a Nigerian writer and essayist, best known for his challenging debut novel 'Prince Of Monkeys', published by Counterpoint Press. A serial collaborator, Mino has worked extensively with literary magazine, Arts and Africa and co-founded the Ape's Collective, a literary collective seeking to challenge long held conventions about the craft in Africa. 

Mino and I discuss his favorite short fiction, the place of collaboration in growing the African literary industry and having to choose between short fiction and full length work.
