Titre(s) : New daughters of Africa [Texte imprimé] : an international anthology of writing by women of African descent / edited by Margaret Busby
Publication : New York : Amistad, an imprint of HarperCollins publishers, 2019
Description matérielle : xxxvii, 1000 pages ; 24 cm
Note(s) : Continues the work established in editor's 1992 anthology, "Daughters of Africa :
an international anthology of words and writings by women of African descent from
the ancient Egyptian to the present" ; "Twenty-five years ago, Margaret Busby's Daughters
of Africa was published to international acclaim and hailed as "an extraordinary body
of achievement . . . a vital document of lost history" (Sunday Times) and "the ultimate
reference guide" (Washington Post). New Daughters of Africa continues that tradition
for a new generation. This magnificent follow-up to the original landmark anthology
brings together fresh and vibrant voices that have emerged from across the globe in
the past two decades, from Antigua to Zimbabwe and Angola to the United States. Key
figures, including Margo Jefferson, Nawal El Saadawi, Edwidge Danticat, and Zadie
Smith, join popular contemporaries such as Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Imbolo Mbue,
Yrsa Daley-Ward, Taiye Selasi, and Chinelo Okparanta in celebrating the heritage that
unites them. Each of the pieces in this remarkable collection demonstrates an uplifting
sense of sisterhood, honors the strong links that endure from generation to generation,
and addresses the common obstacles female writers of color face as they negotiate
issues of race, gender, and class and address vital matters of independence, freedom,
and oppression. A glorious portrayal of the richness, magnitude, and range of these
visionary writers, New Daughters of Africa spans a range of genres--autobiography,
memoir, oral history, letters, diaries, short stories, novels, poetry, drama, humor,
politics, journalism, essays, and speeches--demonstrating the diversity and extraordinary
literary achievements of black women who remain underrepresented, and whose contributions
continue to be underrated in world culture today." ; Publisher's description ; Includes
