Reading: Purple Hibiscus, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Why did you want to read this? This is the story of a 15 year-old Nigerian girl’s coming of age. It’s about the relationships in her life, set against a military coup. I chose it because it lets you into her world and her steps to independence and it allows you to imagine the society in which she lives. The relationship between her and her deeply religious father, alternating between love and fear, is particularly well drawn. Although I read it over a year ago, it stays in my mind. 

How did you record yourself? My son helped me. He held his phone for me to speak into, in our front room.
