Great woman. I agree with her almost on all levels. I only disagree with her on who and what Hillary Clinton really is. Americanah is the most complete, all round work I've read by an African author. Almost oozing with that complex knowledge you will find in all Dan Browne's books.

I loved that one but Half of a Yellow Sun is her masterpiece. My two cents. I also loved The Thing Around Your Neck.

I found the romance in Americanah to be a bit redundant. I could predict how it would end from the get-go, and what I can predict I hardly find enjoyable. The plot was almost verging on the stereotypical: Boy meets girl, girl likes boy, distance drifts both apart, boy and girl reunites again after long tracts of time except that there's one trifling hurdle in the way – boy is already married. Boring. Boring. Boring. I skipped those parts and didn't get to enjoy the novel that much. Her magnum opus to me is Purple Hibiscus. Half Of A Yellow Sun is also a tad mushy for my taste buds as well.

We still haven't seen Spaniards call Catalans clowns.

You live in their land, yet you still call them clowns because they fight for a plight that isn't your business?
Do you get to decide if someone determines he needs independence?

I'm not a sentimental person lest you call me an IPOB or whatever.

Authors sell out books based on their reputation many times.
You just have to put up something terrific to start out of the blocks. You get judged not so harshly for weaker output later on.
Happens with music too.

That your fair cute igbolike face is your saving grace in that hostile territory.

Your research paper must pass throughmy table for declassification before you release for public consummation. I would lobby AZ in that regards for old times sakes.

Your baby girl is would soon be through from the university.She has so far passed all the virginity tests Vista to the doctor.You should prepare some hefty bride price cos the amount would be in Ego igwe for all my stress.

On the Spaniards/Catalans/Basques politics. Keep shut if you don't know anything about it.

Few clowns can't also decide for the entire race.
