This is a new collection of interviews with a remarkable group of some of Kenya's most prominent literary writers, gender activists and public figures. The interviews are concerned with diverse aspects of Kenyan women's lives: what it is to be a women, a writer, politician, activist and mother; how Kenyan women feel about Western feminism; feminist literature and identities; ideas on liberation and their relevance to the African context and more. The interviews include a long exposition from Wanjiku Kabira on the history and future of the women's movement in Kenya and her role, and on institutions of power and polygamy; and Majorie Olughe Macgoye, on being a British born woman and writer who married into Luo society.
