How does gender in Women in the City of the Dead or Things Fall Apart influence what qualifies as work, and how does this change based on other parts of social identity? For example, does marriage change a womans (and/or mans) labour in these books? How do paid and unpaid work differ in value? Do the characters become a different person or take on a different identity when they do some forms of work, or does a change in their identity (from son to husband or daughter to wife) in turn alter their work? Refer to readings/materials attached when relevant.
