In the past, the African woman had neither the right to choose her lover nor the right to formal education. She had to obey the man's orders and keep her distance during the family decision. In fact, the African woman was compared to a child, an orphan or a deaf-mute. She was relegated to the background in all things.

This new image of the woman reflects in her physical world. Thanks to literature, today, women can dream and aspire within African society.
