ResumeThis article is premised on the Systemic Functional approach to text analysis and explores the interpersonal metafunction in Amma Darko’s Beyond the Horizon (1991). The aim of the paper is to find out how the characters interact with one another in the novel. Two extracts have been drawn from the novel. The analysis and interpretation of the extracts show that, throughout her novel, Darko has focused on the way women are exploited by men. This has led to show how the issue of gender inequalities and stereotypes are encoded in the language of the fiction
