This essay has established that war comes with consequences which are often a disaster, leaving an aftermath trauma on women and children especially. We have also seen that these effects are manifested in the physical and psychological forms in the victims. This examination is achieved through the critical study of characters and their experiences in Uzodinma Iweala’s Beast of No Nation and Adam Abubakar Ibrahim’s Season of Crimson Blossom.
The topic of war is a physical action that leaves physical impacts on all who are victims of its unpleasant event. In chapter two, it is portrayed that the physical manifestations of war include: violence, rape and displacement, and occur with similar pattern in women and children as established in our primary texts. Both texts explore the devastating impacts of war on women and children in their respective contexts. The fact that they are distinct works with different settings and character dynamics, yet share common themes related to the experiences of women and children during times of armed conflict vividly shows that the issue of war is universal, unplanned and usually very disastrous which until it stops being a recurring event, women and children will continue to be victims of these.
