This paper argues that discourses of love in Ghanaian market literature for youth offer a view into complex negotiations of agency and empowerment. Drawing on Deborah Durham's notion of youth as "social `shifters'" and Francis Nyamnjoh's conception of the "interconnectedness" of agency, I take Ghanaian market literature as one specific case of how African literature for youth foregrounds questions of continuity and change as African societies enter into increasingly complex global relations. In this literature for youth, received notions of love, often constructed out of impressions from American pop and hip hop music, carry new notions of agency that compete with existing "domesticated" forms. Authors like Ike Tandoh and Evelyn Tay employ discourses of love to offer youth alternative avenues for empowerment in a context of socio-economic disenfranchizement. In a creative process of "straddling", this writing both reveals and reproduces the contradictions that obtain in youth configurations of agency.

Farewell, Christian Reader. I reckon it one of the greatest privileges
which the Lord has been pleased to bestow upon me to be able to finish
this volume. Remember the writer in your prayers. He greatly needs them.
Numberless are his difficulties and trials, as well as his joys and
blessings! Pray that he may be helped of God to finish his course with
joy, and to continue his service without growing weary.

The End.
