Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

4.0

heartbreaking. incredible. I don't know how Adichie kept this sense of hope and optimism alive somewhere in the midst of such a story. I read this for a postcolonial narratives course and could not stop reading it. It's definitely worth reading. I'd do a little research on the time period in Nigeria surrounding the book as well, to understand the chronology of the events and the depth of their meaning.
