| Summary: | To give established African women writers whose work is available in Africa, Europe, and the Americas more exposure for teachers, literary scholars, librarians, and readers of ethnic literature, a study was undertaken which resulted in a bio-bibliography. After an overview on contemporary African literature, the 20 female authors are listed alphabetically in the bio-bibliography, and for each author there is a biographical sketch, a short summary about each author's works and themes, information on critical reception to the author, a list of honors and awards received, a bibliography of the author's works, information on any studies about the author, and a list of the country of origin of each author. All the authors write in English, and the list is limited to authors of novels, poems, short stories, and plays. (NKA) |
