She makes storytelling seem as easy as birdsong.’ Jane Shilling, Telegraph ‘Adichie’s spare, poised prose, the coolness of her phrasing, ensures these scenes are achieved without melodrama. And though she writes very specifically about Nigeria, the stories have a universal application.’ FT ‘An elegant collection. From beginning to end the prose is serene and the characterization deft.’ TLS ‘The powerful themes close to Adichie’s heart shine through, but never over-shadow writing of clarity and brilliance.’ Aminatta Forna, Guardian
