A Bend in the River by V.S. Naipaul
3.0

Not one of my favorites but I can definitively appreciate the depth of this novel. I read this for a post-colonial literature class for which I was substituting. The characters are well-thought out, it's not much of a beginning, middle, end-type traditional story but the book does unpack a lot of themes through the eyes of a European living in Africa.
