Gender Configurations in the African Novel is a groundbreaking study of the presentation of gender dialectics in the African novel. The book is a critical study of selected novels of ten African novelists. It interrogates how the authors whose novels are selected for comparative analysis construct gender differences and identities in their works. Its comparative thrust is new not only in the field of African Literature but also in the area of Gender Studies in the continent. It shows that there are obvious differences in how African male and female novelists present the vagaries of gender.
