The Heinemann book of African women's writing
A good introduction to prominent contemporary African authors. Bios and brief explorations of the socio-economic conditions of each author's life preceding each story help to contextualize each author's work. Entries that were especially interesting to me were the inclusion of works by a mother and daughter who are both writers. It is interesting to see how the the sacrifices one woman made as both an author and a mother affected her daughter both as a child and as an author.
