Résumé

From the author of Half of a Yellow Sun and Americanah come twelve dazzling stories. Adichie turns a penetrating eye on the ties that bind men and women, parents and children, Nigeria and the West ; on love and dislocation, violence and faith and the moments of epiphany that illuminate the beauty and desperation of ordinary lives.

Having been deeply impressed by Chimamand Ngozi Adichie's début novel Purple Hibiscus, I was pleasantly surprised with the author's talent as a short story writer, for it affords her the possibility to depict the immense diversity of her native country, Nigeria. The Thing Around Your Neck is also quite diverse in terms of tone, varying from the tragedy of corruption and war to biting satire involving patronizing Western attitudes towards Africa. A stimulating mix pleasing to the inquisitive mind.
