Zikora
by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
ZIKORA BY CHIMAMANDA NGOZI ADICHIE
I have read Americanah, We should all be feminists and Zikora by Chimamanda. She brings out the true nature of the problems faced by women.
Zikora is a short story, but it is weighty. Labour pain, restlessness, anger, conflicting emotions roiling inside her. The lucid writing and narrative are such that one feels Zikora’s pain.
She tells the story of not only Zikora but also of her mother, both having had a bad relationship with their boyfriend/husband. It also shows the bond between the mother and the child.
Male chauvinism, resulting in helplessness among women is clearly depicted.
What does one owe the misogynistic nature of men to?
Upbringing?
Environment?
Genotype?
