Book excerpt: This book attempts to identify the subversive writing techniques adopted by the black female authors to empower their black female protagonists. Maryse Condé in I, Tituba, Black Witch of Salem, Gloria Naylor in Mama Day, Alice Walker in The Color Purple, Ntozake Shange in Sassafrass, Cypress & Indigo, and Toni Morrison in Beloved demonstrate how their victimised black female protagonists unify with other afflicted black women to challenge stereotypical ideologies of patriarchal society, to interrupt the continuity of their subjugation in order to emancipate as a collective and to reconstruct their future.
