Publisher Description: For nearly a decade, writers' collectives such as Kwani Trust in Kenya and Femrite, the Ugandan women writers' association, have dramatically reshaped the East African literary scene. This text extends the purview of postcolonial literary studies by providing the long overdue critical inquiry that these writers so urgently deserve. |
