Purple Hibiscus
Adichie Chimamanda Ngozi
Fifteen-year-old Kambili and her older brother Jaja lead a privileged life
in Enugu, Nigeria. They live in a beautiful house, with a caring family, and
attend an exclusive missionary school. They're completely shielded from the
troubles of the world. Yet, as Kambili reveals in her tender-voiced account,
things are less perfect than they appear. Although her Papa is generous and
well respected, he is fanatically religious and tyrannical at home—a home that
is silent and suffocating.
As the country begins to fall apart under a military coup, Kambili and Jaja are
sent to their aunt, a university professor outside the city, where they
discover a life beyond the confines of their father’s authority. Books cram the
shelves, curry and nutmeg permeate the air, and their cousins’ laughter rings
throughout the house. When they return home, tensions within the family
escalate, and Kambili must find the strength to keep her loved ones together.
Purple Hibiscus is an exquisite novel about the emotional turmoil
of adolescence, the powerful bonds of family, and the bright promise of freedom.
