ABSTRACT
Women are often the victims of dual personality which various writers, in their works often down play. Dual personality is when someone has two contrasting personality in them. This is the issue examined in this study from the standpoint of Yejide Kilanko’s Daughters Who Walk This Path and Yvonne Vera’s Opening Spaces which opines that dual personality which affects behaviour can really affect the human psyche as seen in the case of Morayo, Morenike, Mrs Ncube and her fellow women lives. Until they learn to stand up to the bullying antics of their partner and people around them, will they be able to break out of this. Clearly, the domination of women is the most fundamental form of Dual personality in the African society. Dual personality can therefore be said to be a regular feature in many African homes, a situation which is portrayed by Kilanko and Vera in their novel: Daughters Who Walk This Path and Opening Spaces respectively, as they advocate change in the attitude of society to this.
