Despite receiving critical acclaim upon its publication, *Femme d' Afrique* soon went out of print and remains little studied. This cannot be solely attributed to a general marginalization of women's voices in discourses of postcolonial politics. After all, texts by Mariama Bâ, Amma Ata Aidoo, and Tsitsi Dangarembga often feature in the postcolonial African literary canon. Kététa's absence from the canon is more likely explained by her key ways in which her autobiography departs from expectations of African women's writings. Her disproportionate emphasis on her work in the public sphere and her relative silence on her marriage and familial relationships disrupt expectations of African women's texts as focused primarily on a female protagonist's interiority or conflict in domestic spaces. In the rare instances where Kététa's text invokes the domestic sphere, she does so to turn it inside out. It is no longer uniquely a space from which to explore family and interpersonal relationships but also a site of communal strategizing and political resistance. Much of the story unfolds in spaces that trouble the public/private binary: state-owned maternity hospitals where women give birth and hold clandestine political meetings, and voting booths where the private act of casting one's ballot is also a public declaration of citizenship. Consequently, although some commentators praise Kététa's autobiography as a rich source of historical information, some have also bemoaned her relative silence on elements of women's private lives, which may explain Feminist scholars' disengagement from the text.
