BOOK: Black and Feminine by Tsitsi
Dangarembga (Faber & Faber).
Award-winning novelist and filmmaker,
Tsitsi Dangarembga explores the wound of empire on this slim quantity of an
introduction and three essays. She is most generally recognized for her debut novel Nervous
Situations, which formed at the very least two generations of post-independence
African readers of the English language. As the primary in a trilogy, the novel
follows the lifetime of Tambudzai, a lady who struggles to cope with the
psychological impacts of racism and sexism as she pursues her academic
ambitions. Tambudzai’s destiny within the continuing novels serves as an allegory of
how the hopes of Zimbabwe rose and the way they had been dashed over the many years that
adopted independence.
