Patriarchy and its potrayal in African Literature A Series Part 2 | Efuru by Flore Nwapa

Flora Nwapa’s Efuru, published in 1966, is a seminal work in African literature and holds a special place as one of the first novels written by a Nigerian woman. Set in a traditional Igbo society, Efuru not only tells the story of its titular character but also provides a rich exploration of gender roles, expectations, and the pervasive influence of patriarchy in African society.
