Originally published in 1980, this book introduces the student to twelve of the most exciting and significant African authors of the 20th Century, whose work represents Anglophone and Francophone writing (with translation) drawn from West, East and Southern Africa. Twelve African Writers was a revised, updated and extended edition of the pioneering Seven African Writers which did so much to make students aware of African literature. The book also contains an extensive bibliography of the works not just of the selected writers, but other important African authors and recommendations of further critical works.

Gerald Moore was a scholar of anglophone and francophone literature written by Africans. He spent many years teaching in Africa and Hong kong. At the University of Sussex he pioneered the study of developing world literatures as part of an integrated undergraduate programme.
