Emerging Perspectives on Ken Bugul: From Alternative Choices to Oppositional Practices

By: Larquie, Jeanne-Sarah de

Ken Bugul has written seven novels. She has persisted in conveying the traumatic moments that have marked her own experiences and has increasingly been reaching out to express the voices of her generation of women - in transgressive and bold terms intended, increasingly, to embrace issues facing wider society. Her work has won international renown, in particular winning the Grand Prix Litteraire de l'Afrique Noire in 1999. The majority of work concerning Bugul is in French - making this collection a much needed addition to the field.
