Redefining Women in Contemporary African Fiction","description":"Major critical works on creative literature have paid inadequate attention to women, perpetuating a male-dominated viewpoint. This work from a woman academic who has made a particular study of women writers' self-perceptions and the representation of heroines in African fiction, examines the dilemma of the woman as a writer and protagonist in contemporary African fiction. The socio-cultural perception of women and the dominant factors that encourage problems or crises in their lives, are the central concerns. The works of a number of major African writers in particular are examined: Buchi Emecheta, Bessie Head, Flora Nwapa and Grace Ogot; and male writers Peter Abraham, Cyprian Ekwensi, Alex la Guma, Ngugi wa Thiong'o and Ousmane Sembene.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gloria Chukukere\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 978156380X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789781563805\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fourth Dimension Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/17\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.88d","brand":"Gloria Chukukere","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46974472782079,"sku":"9789781563805","price":60.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ddd85feb-89eb-40c8-be85-381b4db4be32.jpg?v=1750875125","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gender-voices-and-choices-redefining-gloria-chukukere-9789781563805","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
