Book Synopsis Our Sister Killjoy by : Ama Ata Aidoo
Download or read book Our Sister Killjoy written by Ama Ata Aidoo. This book was released on 2025-02-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fish and chips. They lied. They lied. They lied. Sissie is leaving Africa for the first time, arriving in Europe on a scholarship to experience the glories of a Western education. In Germany, as guest of honour over embassy cocktails, she cringes at her countrymen. In a Bavarian castle, she is seduced by a lonely local mother to Little Adolf. In freezing London, she witnesses 'been-tos' sharing myths of an overseas idyll. In between continents, she writes a letter on the plane to her exiled former lover. But it is not sent. She will tell these tales back at home. Ama Ata Aidoo's landmark debut Our Sister Killjoy exploded into the world in 1977. With its blistering feminist satire of the African diaspora, colonial legacies and toxic racism, expressed in a radical literary form - prose poetry, letter, manifesto - its provocative impact remains unmatched. 'A wondrous discovery.' Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie 'A granary of wisdom & knowledge.' Tsitsi Dangarembga 'Aidoo has reaffirmed my faith in the power of the written word.' Alice Walker 'Modest, lyrical, reflective and intelligent .. Deserves as wide an audience as it can get.' Angela Carter

Book Synopsis Changes by : Ama Ata Aidoo

Book excerpt: A Commonwealth Prize–winning novel of “intense power . . . examining the role of women in modern African society” by the acclaimed Ghanaian author (Publishers Weekly). Living in Ghana’s capital city of Accra with a postgraduate degree and a career in data analysis, Esi Sekyi is a thoroughly modern African woman. Perhaps that is why she decides to divorce her husband after enduring yet another morning’s marital rape. Though her friends and family are baffled by her decision (after all, he doesn’t beat her!), Esi holds fast. When she falls in love with a married man—wealthy, and able to arrange a polygamous marriage—the modern woman finds herself trapped in a new set of problems. Witty and compelling, Aidoo’s novel, according to Manthia Diawara, “inaugurates a new realist style in African literature.” In an afterword to this edition, Tuzyline Jita Allan “places Aidoo’s work in a historical context and helps introduce this remarkable writer [who] sheds light on women’s problems around the globe” (Publishers Weekly).
