Abstract
<p>Despite the well-known approach among avant-garde feminist novelists in Nigeria of creating agile and assertive female characters to challenge male-domination, Chimamada Ngozi Adichie in Purple Hibiscus creates docile female characters who readily escape into their cocoon to avoid encounters with patriarchy. Her novel however, manages to impact on the feminist agenda by her ingenious depiction of the harsh and unreasonable male hegemony on a mission of self-destruct.</p>
