Forlagsbeskrivelse af HALF OF A YELLOW SUN af Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Winner of Women's Prize for Fiction's 'Winner of Winners' 2020 and of the Baileys Prize Best of the Best! A heartbreaking, exquisitely written literary masterpiece, Chimamandas haunting novel originally won the Women's Prize for Fiction (then the Orange Prize) in 2007. - Ugwu, a boy from a poor village, works as a houseboy for a university professor. Olanna, a young woman, has abandoned her life of privilege in Lagos to live with her charismatic new lover, the professor. And Richard, a shy English writer, is in thrall to Olanna's enigmatic twin sister. As the horrific Biafran War engulfs them, they are thrown together and pulled apart in ways they had never imagined. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's masterpiece, winner of the Orange Prize for Fiction, is a novel about Africa in a wider sense: about the end of colonialism, ethnic allegiances, class and race - and about the ways in which love can complicate all of these things.
