Nervous Conditions
by Tsitsi Dangarembga
If you think you have a hard life, try living in Africa and not having a fridge to keep your meat from going bad. And try having to sleep on your kitchen floor, which isn't just cold linoleum, but dung! I enjoyed the story and the narrative voice, but I had a little bit of difficulty seeing it from a black perspective that blames whites in part for being poor. Seems to me the narrator is still better off at the white school even if she isn't treated as well as the white students. At least she doesn't have to sleep on a dung floor! But I guess everything is relative. The more you see other people have, the more you feel you should have yourself.
