The essays gathered here explore the contribution of little magazines to the development of distinctive literary culture, by calling attention to unusual examples of small-scale publishing, and by scrutinizing stylistic innovations in pamphlets and newspapers aimed at a mass audience. Lindfors also exhumes from Nigerian media of very limited circulation a number of important literary documents that ought to be more widely known.
