Winner of the Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction 2007, this is a heartbreaking, exquisitely written literary masterpiece. This highly anticipated novel from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is set in Nigeria during the 1960s, at the time of a vicious civil war in which a million people died and thousands were massacred in cold blood. The three main characters in the novel are swept up in the violence during these turbulent years. One is a young boy from a poor village who is employed at a university lecturer's house. The other is a young middle-class woman, Olanna, who has to confront the reality of the massacre of her relatives. And the third is a white man, a writer who lives in Nigeria for no clear reason, and who falls in love with Olanna's twin sister, a remote and enigmatic character. As these people's lives intersect, they have to question their own responses to the unfolding political events. This extraordinary novel is about Africa in a wider sense: about moral responsibility, about the end of colonialism, about ethnic allegiances, about class and race; and about the ways in which love can complicate all of these things.
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie was born in Nigeria in 1977. She is from Abba, in Anambra State, but grew up in the university town of Nsukka, where she attended primary and secondary schools. She went on to receive a BS in Communication and Political Science from Eastern Connecticut State University and an MA from Johns Hopkins University, both in the United States. Her short fiction has been published in literary journals including Granta, and won the International PEN/David Wong award in 2003. 'Purple Hibiscus', her first novel, was shortlisted for the Orange Prize and the John Llewellyn Rhys Prize and was winner of the Hurston/Wright Legacy award for debut fiction. She was a Hodder fellow at Princeton University for the 2005-2006 academic year. She lives in Nigeria.

小说家阿迪奇埃的代表作《半轮黄日》在世界文坛上斩获了多个大奖,这是一本关于尼日利亚内战的书。书名来自于内战中南方伊博族所建立的比亚法拉共和国的国旗:色彩饱和的红黑绿三色旗上,半轮黄日正散发着光芒。 比亚法拉这个短命的共和国只成立了三年,在被政府军打败之后,重...
评分尼日利亚,本来是很遥远的国度,但是突然一下从地图上跳出来呈现在我的面前。 在大部分人眼中,非洲是一个大陆,是一个整体,除了埃及、南非等一些国家外,其余的几十个国家都是默默挤在一起组成了一个整体。《血钻》《卢旺达饭店》《北非谍影》几时有如此多的影片,然而广大的...
