Buchi Emecheta - The Bride Price ( 1976) & The Slave Girl (1977) - Fontana New
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
The Bride Price is a 1976 novel which concerns, in part, the problems of women in post-colonial Nigeria. The author dedicated this novel to her mother, Alice Ogbanje. The Slave Girl is set in colonial Nigeria, in the early 1900s, and tells the story of Ogbanje Ojebeta who, following the death of her parents is sold into domestic slavery. Writing in The Guardian, Carol Dix observed that the novel "pales a lot of academic feminist writing into insignificance....It makes you wish more writers came from the non-white-educated-middle-classes; which is something we should be trying to encourage." These two Fontana copies are in fine condition ( see photos).
