Half of a Yellow Sun easily outshines the profusion of books published in the year 2006. Despite of the gravity of issues Chimamanda deals with here, she soothes the readers’ soul with her witty writing.
Half of a Yellow Sun hits you hard with terrific imagery describing suffering, the magnanimity of a million losses, tears and immeasurable pain; then drains you, leaving you wondering if you could have survived that period, and how your parents and grandparents did. It will have you futilely hoping such horrors never cross anyone’s path.
It's beautiful, soul stirring and poignant. Adichie leaves her characters emotions fully explored.
