''Farafina Magazine'' was a bimonthly publication providing a high-quality medium for people all over the world to freely express their world view. A general-interest African magazine written in simple uncluttered prose and illustrated with humorous drawings and photographs, the magazine received strong commendations from people from different walks of life. ==History== ''Farafina'' started in 2004 as an online magazine published by Kachifo Limited. From October 2005, it was produced as a print magazine until publication was suspended, after 16 issues, in September 2009, with plans to revive the magazine as a non-profit venture of Farafina Trust.〔("Farafina Magazine", Kachifo Limited. )〕 The magazine has been guest-edited by Olajide Bello, Okey Ndibe, Molara Wood, Toni Kan, Uzodinma Iweala, Petina Gappah, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Laila Lalami. It has featured the works of Wole Soyinka, Segun Afolabi, Uche James Iroha, Funmi Iyanda, Dinaw Mengestu, Barbara Murray, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Jackee Budesta Batanda, Helon Habila, Tosin Oshinowo, Patrice Nganang, Jide Alakija, and a plethora of other writers and graphical artists. When publication was suspended in September 2009, the foremost reason given was the "financial unsustainability of the magazine, exacerbated by the prevailing economic climate".〔(Farafina Trust website. )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Farafina Magazine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
