The Thing Around Your Neck (4/5)




The Thing Around Your Neck
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie


The Thing Around Your Neck is a collection of short stories about life in Nigeria and life in America from the point of women who are native to Nigeria, the stories range in subject but they all share that central theme.

I really enjoyed this book. I don't know a lot about the culture of Nigeria or Africa so it was really nice to get an insight into the culture and the hardships that women especially face. I really like Adichie's views on women in Nigeria and her views on America. Overall I would recommend this book to anyone, especially people wanting to broaden their horizons.

Thanks for reading another one of my reviews, and I'll see you all soon with another one!
