Current Read: Half a Yellow Sun


In 2014 I vow to read more books written by or telling authentic African stories and it starts here.

I read and finished Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s collection of short stories titled ‘The Thing Around Your Neck’ and loved it. I am very happy to have discovered this author and her work and I’m equally thrilled about delving into this novel as well. Published in 2006 and has since gone on to receive awards including the Orange Prize for Fiction award in 2007, this is an award given out annually to a female author of a full length English novel.
