Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

There has been a focus on the shortcomings of African leaders in recent African literature. This is evident in works such as Chimamanda Adichie's "Half of a Yellow Sun", which deals with the Nigerian Civil War and the political corruption that contributed to it. A is incorrect because Chinua Achebe received the Nobel Prize in 1986, but this does not relate to recent African literature. C is incorrect because there are many successful female African novelists, such as Adichie and Tsitsi Dangarembga. D is incorrect because African-American authors are not dominating African literary activity. E is partially correct, as some contemporary authors are countering negative Western portrayals of Africans, but this is not the main focus of recent African literature.
