MIRIAM TLALI



Miriam Tlali, born in South Africa at the time apartheid took a grim toll on blacks, has entered the history books as the first black woman to publish a novel in the country - Muriel at metropolitan - and it is a very fine work too!
The story of how Tlali finally managed to publish the book during those daunting times is a triumph on its own...but she has published other works over the years, including – Amandla, Mihloti, Soweto Stories, and Footprints in the Quag

Studies:

Grappling with patriarchies : narrative strategies of resistance in
Miriam Tlali's writings by Christina Cullhed

Tlali's works by Mante Mphahlele
