Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
From the beginning, Saraba has emphasized the importance of publishing writers for the first time, and how by this venture such new writers may find confidence in their crafts. The magazine has, by virtue of the worldwide web, grown in leaps, and regular contributions now pour in from the rest of the continent. The goal remains to create unending voices by publishing the finest emerging writers, with a bias for Nigeria, and Africa. In recent editions of the magazine, attention has also been given to the work of emerging visual artists, including photographers, illustrators, and visual artists in general. Driven by the necessity to highlight poetry as “the economy of sound,” Saraba has also published poetry collections in chapbook forms. These chapbooks have sought out the most brilliant poets working in Nigeria, and have been ambitious in outlook and form. Saraba, in each issue, offers a reflection of the world, and how literature can speak to, about and for, basic human interaction. The magazine has gathered quite a following around the world.
