Tsitsi Dangarembga was born in Mutoko in colonial Rhodesia, which became the independent state of Zimbabwe in 1980. She moved to Britain when she was two, and started school there, returning to Rhodesia when she was six. She completed her school education at a missionary school in Mutare and began a degree in medicine at Cambridge, but returned home in 1980 without completing the degree. Instead she completed a degree in psychology at the University of Harare, where she wrote plays for a drama group, including one which she also directed called The Lost of the Soil. In 1985 she published a story called “The Letter” in Sweden, and in 1987 her play She No Longer Weeps was published in Harare.

Zimbabwean writer, whose novel NERVOUS CONDITIONS (1988) has become a modern African classic. It was awarded the Commonwealth Writers' Prize in 1989. Dangarembga has dealt in her works with the oppressive nature of a patriarchal family structure and a woman's coming-of-age. "My soul is African," she has said, "it is from there that springs the fountain of my creative being."
