First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. "African Literature Today 15" was published in 1987 in Trenton New York by Africa World Press. On the rear cover are found the following Excerpts : "The book is devoted to African women writers and to the presentation of women in African literature. This is a recognition of two important facts. Firstly, that African women writers, as a number of articles show, have been neglected in male-authored studies and journals. Secondly, that the last ten years or so have at last, despite all sociological factors against them, shown a blossoming of accomplished works by African women writers. "Molara Ogundipe-Leslie has discussed provocatively the issue of 'commitment' to the need to counter misconceptions about the role of women. Mariama Bâ, Aminata Sow Fall, and Ama Ata Aidoo have extended the range of concerns in the African novel with the coverage of such issues as polygamy, marriage, love, and the relations between the sexes. Will the woman writer be free in the future to follow her own creative impulse and, like any author, write about what she pleases?"
