MaThoko's Books is an imprint of Gay and Lesbian Memory in Action (GALA) that publishes high-quality books on queer subjects. Launched in 2011, the imprint aims to be a corrective to the limited publishing support for queer writing in Africa and to act as a springboard for emerging and marginalised writers. MaThoko's Books is also committed to publishing scholarly works and research on LGBTIQ-related themes.
We believe in the immense power of sharing stories and the significant role that books, both fiction and nonfiction, can play in entrenching LGBTIQ rights in Africa.
