Common Themes from African Novels

I reference books set in Africa to discuss how African women are portrayed in novels. During our discussions, I ask my guests and listeners for their views on a variety of issues, including the following three questions:   1.Is the role of an African girl set long before she is born, or is she free to choose the life she desires?  2.what role do African women play in shaping existing narratives on gender relations? 3.And, does education open more opportunities or conflicts for African women?
