With effortless grace, celebrated author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie illuminates a seminal moment in modern African history: Biafra's impassioned struggle to establish an independent republic in southeastern Nigeria during the late 1960s. We experience this tumultuous decade alongside five unforgettable characters: Ugwu, a thirteen-year-old houseboy who works for Odenigbo, a university professor full of revolutionary zeal; Olanna, the professor’s beautiful young mistress who has abandoned her life in Lagos for a dusty town and her lover’s charm; and Richard, a shy young Englishman infatuated with Olanna’s willful twin sister Kainene. Half of a Yellow Sun is a tremendously evocative novel of the promise, hope, and disappointment of the Biafran war.

评分小说诞生之初,只是为了记录故事,愉悦考官或者读者的一家之言吧,可能谁也不会想到,小说可以在作家的笔下千变万化,并承载着越来越沉重的期望——忠实地记录,回望并且反思——奇玛曼达·恩戈兹·阿迪契的《半轮黄日》就是这样的一部作品。 《半轮黄日》描述的故事发生在上个...
评分阿迪奇埃所描绘的是上世纪60年代的尼日利亚,是时空距离颇为遥远的一个生活状态,但她的叙述却让我频频地将之与现实生活作对照,这体现了作者的野心不局限于成就一部史诗巨作。 在书中可以看到,人性中的恶如何在群体中、在资源不足的情况下被充分激发;将人贴上不同的标签,以...
Adichie真是太会讲故事了—关乎尼日利亚内战,热血的Biafra共和国,美丽坚韧的Olanna,自信直率的Kainene,生动好学的Ugwu,难得不是殖民者姿态的Richard和在战争中消沉的所谓反抗者Odenigbo…真是举重若轻的记录和叙述。

评分她的每本书都是那么引人入胜,这本也不例外。这本书讲述了几个以尼日利亚境内发生的战争为背景的故事。人物鲜明,不仅仅来自于他们都是出于不同的阶层,更加重要的是这些人物的发展,而战争在期间起到了推波助澜的作用。如果改变为一部电影,应该会很好看。朗读者演绎了作者的所有的书本,每一本都非常精彩。听过采访作者的录音,也是很有自己的特色。
