I haven't even finished it and I want to recommend it 
This is set in Nigeria during the civil war in the 60's and is told from the viewpoint of a wealthy couple's house boy. I feel like I know the characters and I'll grieve when it's on the last page.
Bloody fascinating. I don't wanna put it down. Only resting when my eyes hurt.
It covers so many intricate details of Biafran life, I think it helped me to read about this now ... If you think our government is squeezing every last drop out of us check out what these people lived and died in. I think it will help you be able to cope with life in the UK.
I want to read history books now, talk to people who lived there.
My review doesn't do this service so HERE is a link with better ones
