Award Surprises Nigerian Author!

"Adichie said she was proud to take on the mantle of Nigerian authors Chinua Achebe and Wole Soyinka."

Isnt it a bit presumptuous, despite her growing popularity? Those 2 are long established writers, she is still a newbie, having busted into the literary scene less than a decade ago. Tread softly, Ms. Adichie, enjoy your new found success while wishing you the best.
