Nothing around their feet

Tolu Ogunlesi has a great review of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's newest offering, The Thing Around Your Neck.
Tolu, like many Naija men, have fallen for Chimamanda. I swear he loves her - and who doesn't? Well, here is part of what he has to say.
"These are also stories that push the boundaries and surprise at every turn; stories of ordinary humans living (mostly) ordinary lives of quiet desperation and responding in ways that surprise them and us. There is a satisfying absence of melodrama and “odd world” surprises in them."

I like Tolu. We're sure to hear much about him in the next years. Well, read the review and see what I'm talking about. ENJOY
