Summary: Would you like to find out about Francophone African literature and those women writers who, since the 1970's, have increased in number and who write about what concerns and interests them in their short stories, novels, plays or poetry? It's very simple. Look at the main works available in English, choose a few titles which look interesting and glance at the brief information provided about them. Alternatively, you may want to have a glance at the family portrait that offers direct links to some forty pages. To find out more background information, you can also consult the authors by countries, look at a few unpublished texts or glance at the many interviews published (in French) by the magazine Amina or by our team . A list detailing some publishing houses located in Africa is also available.
