African Literature Assignment

Short story - "Half A Yellow Sun" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (pg.67-83)

In a brief essay, roughly 350-500 words, answer the following question:

What does it mean to be a Biafran to the author? Who are the best examples of what a Biafran should be in the story and why?

This should be written as an essay, with an introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion. You need to develop a thesis statement in response to the question, and write at least three solid body paragraphs supporting that thesis with examples from the story.

Also write a short discussion on: What do you think the author has to say about women in times of war? How do the women in the story act as examples of what she wants to say?
