A Bend in the River
by V.S. Naipaul
This book was definitely a challenge for me and unlike anything I'm used to reading. It wasn't my favorite but I think it's very important to read this book if you'd like to get an accurate sense of what Africa was really like during these periods of revolution and war. It's all extremely realistic. There were some parts of the story that I did find very interesting and captivating - like Salim's relationship with Yvette. Overall, I'm glad I read it and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys learning about history and other ways of life.
