Transformation of Women in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's Purple Hibiscus

The works of third‐generation Nigerian women writers present female characters challenging two forms of domination, one continued by the father figure and the other by the husband who continues the practice of subjugation and female subordination. They have to suffer the after effects of colonial rule and the patriarchal norms of their culture. This research presents the transformation of female characters from a state of voiceless to assertiveness. To reach in that stage they had to sacrifice a lot in their life.
