| Synopsis: |
Kenneth Harrow introduces a psychoanalytic dimension to the study of African women's writing and opens up relatively uncharted terrain in African literary studies. Comprehensive, nuanced, and occasionally lyrical, his book covers a broad range of hitherto neglected francophone novels that are examined alongside canonical anglophone texts. Harrow places these novels in their colonial and postcolonial contexts, developing upon and linking poststructuralist theories of colonialism and patriarchy. The book offers a radical new position for those scholars who have long sought alternatives to the liberal humanist bias pervading studies of African women's writing. |
