Description

Emerging Perspectives on Akachi Adimora-Ezeigbo is a collection of 15 critical essays that highlights the literary contributions of Akachi Adimora-Ezeigbo as one of Nigeria's leading female writers. The book includes a literary biography, professional profile, and an interview with professor Adimora-Ezeigbo that offers valuable insight into her life and works. Contributing scholars provide critical and theoretical perspectives on Adimora-Ezeigbo's ouvre that represents a postcolonial lens to interpret the African world. Emerging Perspectives contextualizes Adimora-Ezeigbo's works of fiction, poetry, and drama within African, Nigerian, and Women's literary tradition. This collection builds upon critical and theoretical scholarship on leading African writers whose works comprise a dynamic and compelling genre of African writing that spans the post-independence era into the 21st century. The essays examine themes from Adimora-Ezeigbo's writing such as patriarchy, feminism, war, cultural traditions, and contemporary issues in Nigerian society such as trafficking, and many of the social, economic, and political challenges to Nigeria's development as a modern nation state. Review At last, here comes a critical book that does service to the literary oeuvre of Akachi Adimora-Ezeigbo. With Emerging Perspectives, edited by Rose Sackeyfio and Blessing Diala-Ogamba, the contributors have, indeed, succeeded in placing another African female writer among the pantheon of celebrated women writers. Certainly, and as the essays in this collection demonstrate, the future of African literary criticism promises more critical robustness enriched by the creative works of African women as Adimora-Ezeigbo. It anticipates greater engagement with quintessential issues surrounding women's empowerment and transcendence over growing social challenges.--Pauline Uwakweh, North Carolina A&T State University About the Author Rose A. Sackeyfio is associate professor at Winston-Salem State University. Blessing Diala-Ogamba is professor at Coppin State University.
