Abstract
Be they fiction or non - fiction, literary forms are a channel that authors use to show a picture of the past, and present human life to suggest how the future would spring from the already gained experiences. Some of these authors are female writers who take interest in describing how people lived or live so that the audience can draw some needful lessons. In this study, the intent of the author is to clear up women voices on the painful situations they lived. The authors delve into two female writings viz Alice Walker’s epistolary novel ‘The Color Purple’ and Tsitsi Dangarembga’s bildungsroman ‘Nervous Conditions’. Driven by liberal feminist, and hinged on related studies involving the two authors, discussion measures two stories’ protagonists; Celie and Tambudzai (Tambu). It is noted that the two are victims of both gender and colour based violence rooted in colonization oppression and patriarchy. Despite considerable steps achieved to address this rampant issue in many parts of the world, it is high time women voices were heard.
