I thought this collection of essays by a great African writer might be quite challenging reading but something I could learn from, and other books I have read recently have made me want to learn more about Nigeria. I found the book very educational and informative, but at the same time, extremely accessible and easy to read. Thank you to the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
My further reading plans include Things Fall Apart and Chinua Achebe's novels. I recommend all of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's work – you can read a review of [[Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie|Half of a Yellow Sun]] here. Other collections of essays include Zadie Smith, [[Changing My Mind : Occasional Essays by Zadie Smith|Changing My Mind]] and Arundhati Roy, [[Listening to Grasshoppers by Arundhati Roy|Listening to Grasshoppers]].
