This book is based on a PhD study which was designed against the background of the vital need for a comprehensive research on religious sisters in Africa and in particular Nigeria, addressing the problems and challenges of identity construction within the context of religious community life. The sisters' narratives as presented in this book present multiple I-positions through which their work of identity is achieved including relationship with God. Accordingly, the sisters' construction of identity could best be described as multivoiced expressing how they themselves construct 'who they are' including 'who they are becoming' and how others construct them as well. Hence, the majority of the sisters in constructing identity sometimes accepted or rejected the ways others (particularly superiors, formators, senior sisters including bishops and priests) construct them. However, their major source of identity dilemma arise from the chasm between the ideal concepts of religious life and the lived reality, which makes it an interesting book to read. This book is a significant contribution to studies of African women's religious life. Based on research with two religious congregations in Nigeria, it presents the experience of women from their multiple "I- positions" in relation to culture, gender and religious life. The study demonstrates clearly the challenges African women experience as religious sisters which includes the evolving nature of inculturated religious life.
