Book Review of Half of a Yellow Sun

Half of a Yellow Sun
reviewed on + 15 more book reviews


This is a tremendous book, very well written. I encourage readers to also listen to the speech this author recently gave at a TED conference:

For anyone with an interest in Nigeria and the Biafran conflict, this is must reading. Her earlier book (for which she was awarded the Commonwealth Writers' Prize), Purple Hisbiscus, is another that is well worth reading.
