Casa África launches the 11th edition of Purorrelato, its micro-story contest that aims to promote literary creation that encourages us to feel and think about Africa and to continue showing different realities that approach us to the continent, away from the stereotypes that have marked it for so long.

The theme is free, although the micro-stories should be related to Africa in some way

The story could take place inside or outside the continent and its degree of relation with Africa could range from a detail to the total protagonism of the story. Entry is FREE.

Participants must guarantee that there are no third-party rights over the micro-stories submitted and will be responsible for any claims that may be made in this respect.

The micro-stories could be submitted in Spanish, English, French or Portugueses, with a maximum length of 1500 characters (not words) including spaces and excluding the title.

The stories received will be assessed by a jury composed of African and/or Spanish renowned experts in African literature. The deadline for submission is 16th April 2025 at 14.00 hours (GMT +0).
