Summary: This book represents a significant contribution to academic knowledge, making a compelling case for a contemporary analytical re-reading of a number of "core" postcolonial women’s narratives, such as Erna Brodber’s Jane and Louisa Will Soon Come Home, Buchi Emecheta’s The Joys of Motherhood, and Mariama Bâ’s So Long a Letter. These narratives highlight diversity, contextuality, opposition, and metachrony, have a "generative literary function", and anticipate what have now become postcolonial.
