dllh 's review for:

Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

5.0

---

This is a beautiful book. The prose is simple and clear, the story sometimes heartbreaking but seldom maudlin, the main characters generally sympathetic but surely not without their flaws. I learned in this book about a piece of history I hadn't known existed, which I always find rewarding. I recommend this one heartily and am off to read another by Adichie now.
