Publisher Description: This study is set out to establish the extent to which female characters in selected texts are portrayed as radical.The textual findings have established that it is true that the female characters in the selected texts have been portrayed as radical especially looking at African standard expectations of a decent woman. However, the study has also established that these females become radical because of the situations they find themselves in. These situations have forced married women to walk out of their matrimonial homes and the single women to remain single for the rest of their lives. |
