A review by esander1789
Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

5.0

A beautiful sad book about middle class people (including a math professor) living through the Biafran War. I knew nothing about this before. The book did a great job of making the characters into people who I associate with, even though they are so foreign in some ways - a perfect example of a novel working better for me than a history book.
