The Thing Around Your Neck
From Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie,
the Orange Prize-winning author of Half of a Yellow Sun, come twelve
dazzling stories in which she turns her penetrating eye on the ties that
bind men and women, parents and children, Nigeria and the West. In 'A
Private Experience,' a medical student hides from a violent riot with a poor
Muslim woman whose dignity and faith force her to confront the realities and
fears she's been pushing away. In 'Tomorrow Is Too Far,' a woman unlocks the
devastating secret that surrounds her brother's death. The young mother at
the center of 'Imitation' finds her comfortable life threatened when she
learns that her husband back in Lagos has moved his mistress into their
home. And the title story depicts the choking loneliness of a Nigerian girl
who moves to an America that turns out to be nothing like the country she
expected; though falling in love brings her desires nearly within reach, a
death in her homeland forces her to re-examine them. Searing and profound,
suffused with beauty, sorrow and longing, this collection is a resounding
confirmation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's prodigious storytelling powers.
Half of a Yellow Sun
Winner of the Orange Broadband Prize for
Fiction 2007, this is a heartbreaking, exquisitely written literary
masterpiece.
Purple Hibiscus
'A beautiful and often harrowing story.'
Observer Books of the Year 'A sensitive and touching story of a child
exposed too early to religious intolerance and the uglier side of the
Nigerian state.' J. M. Coetzee 'Political brutality and domestic violence,
religion and witchcraft all merge with subtle force in this memorable novel.
Chimammanda Ngozi Adichie uses childhood innocence to write Nigerian history
with the eye of a family insider.' Hugo Hamilton 'Purple Hibiscus is the
best debut I've read since Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things.' Jason
Cowley, Times journalist, literary editor of the New Statesman 'This debut
ensnares the reader from the first page and lingers in the memory!in soft,
searing voice, Adichie examines the complexities of family, faith and
country through the haunted but hopeful eyes of a young girl on the cusp of
womanhood.'
