Book excerpt: "...OF GREAT VALUE FOR ANYONE WISHING TO UNDERSTAND CURRENT ZIMBABWEAN REALITY."--AFRICA TODAY. An overview of Zimbabwe's principle literary figures, this study examines the ways in which the prevailing social setting & each writer's personal background determined the characteristics of their literature. Equal attention is devoted to the earlier school of black writers as well as those who gained prominence after independence, such as Chenjerai Hove (1990 Noma Award winner), Shimmer Choyda (1990 Commonwealth Writers Prize winner), & the female author Tsitsi Dangarembga.
