This book deals with African women's literature, and specifically creative writing by Kenyan women, in the context of feminism and Afrocentricity. In the words of Obioma Nnaemeka critics of African women's literature have tended to rename, misname or silence women's voices in an attempt to make them fit into a feminist/Afrocentricity either or mould.

Feminism in this book means African women's vision and activism for sexual equality and women's liberation while Afrocentricity refers to their commitment and pride in their African cultures and traditions.
