La sorprendente primera novela de Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, ganadora del Commonwealth Writers' Prize como Best First Book. Una conmovedora historia sobre una virulenta relación familiar ambientada en un África de conflictos políticos y sociales. -Edición especial limitada con prólogo de Gabriela Ybarra-

La joven Kambili, de quince años, y su hermano mayor Jaja llevan una vida privilegiada en la ciudad de Enugu. Viven en una hermosa casa y frecuentan un elitista colegio religioso, pero su vida familiar dista mucho de ser armoniosa. Su padre, un poderoso y respetado hombre de negocios, es un fanático católico que alienta expectativas de cariño imposibles de cumplir. Cuando los jóvenes visitan durante unos días a la cariñosa y atrevida tía Ifeoma en su humilde apartamento, descubren un mundo totalmente nuevo: el rico olor a curry que inunda el lugar, las continuas risas de sus primos, las flores exuberantes, la calidez, el respeto a las ideas, la libertad, el amor y la ausencia de castigos. Al regresar a su hogar, transformados por la libertad conquistada, la tensión familiar crece de forma alarmante.

En La flor púrpura oímos la voz de una juventud que rechaza las prohibiciones que se ciernen sobre su vida y que ahogan a su pueblo. Un relato tierno, sereno y conmovedor sobre los lazos familiares, la pasión de la adolescencia y la represión, y que trasciende el paisaje de una Nigeria convulsa para cobrar un cariz universal.

Esta novela pertenece al #FondoDeEditor de Literatura Random House

«Un relato embriagador sobre la pérdida de la inocencia de una joven nigeriana en una región asolada por la brutalidad política, la brujería y la religión. Nunca África había resultado tan universal.» -Claudio López Lamadrid

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"One of the most vital and original novelists of her generation." --Larissa MacFarquhar, The New Yorker

From the bestselling author of Americanah and We Should All Be Feminists

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.

Actual glitter instead of highlighter
Color: Gold, Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I was looking for a glow body oil that had actual pieces of glitter in it, instead of just a body highlighter (like many of the other market glow oils) and this is exactly what I was looking for. It smells delicious and is very moisturizing. It does feel like an oil, but it is lightweight. I have the sol de janiero glow oil and the main differences are the pieces of glitter vs the highlighting effect. Its not an over powering amount of glitter but just enough that if the light hits you, you can tell there is a shine

Glass bottle
Color: Gold, Size: 3.38 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Smells nice, not the shimmer I was looking for. It wasn’t super glittery like another brand I had. Also it’s in a glass bottle. So I didn’t feel comfortable packing it on my trip.

It actually moisturizes pretty well, smells pretty amazing and its not greasy. but could make it easier to get the oil out.
