I loved that book also! So simple but profound and moving, it was great. I’m not a fan of a lot of modern ‘african’ literature i.e. home going series, my sister the serial killer (awful), etc. Adichie is one of the only authors where I think her work will be regarded as a classic in years to come in this realm.
I suggest you try Freshwater and the Death of Vivek Oji - those are some of the most imaginative novels I’ve ever read with beautiful prose and vivid characters!
