Reviews

""Sexual Humour in Africa is another major contribution to the growing body of research on jokes, humor, and comedy in Africa. It offers a useful introduction to the varied forms of sexual humor in the popular, literary and performance cultures of Africa, and uncovers longstanding traditions of sexual humor across the African continent. Together the chapters in this volume shed light on the intersections between sexual humor, and prevailing notions of femininity and masculinity in contemporary Africa."" Moradewun Adejunmobi, Professor, African American and African Studies, University of California, Davis
