Subject: Recent African Women's literature and Migration


Greetings Fellow Poco-ers:
I'm trying to round out my African lit course with a novel by a woman writer 
which deals with the contemporary dissolution of African states and 
subsequent migration to Europe (or the USA)...Any suggestions?...

Have folks had success teaching Amma Darko's "Beyond the Horizon" or Calixthe 
Beyala's Paris novels?
