The thing around your neck is a collection of 12 short stories by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie exploring relationships between parents and children, husbands and wives, siblings and Nigeria and the West.
This collection of engaging and thought-provoking stories highlights the inconsistencies and strengths of a variety of relationships. Contrasting responsibilities, expectations, jealousies, sacrifices, everyday circumstances and extraordinary events, Adichie’s storytelling skills help readers to both identify with central characters and acknowledge them as flawed and complex individuals.
If you have read the book, we would like to know your take on the stories.
