Damn, she's a good writer. The first two stories are superb, and I'm not sure there's a better reader alive than Adjoa Andoh.
Cell Number 1, where the handsome, dissolute son of a professor finds self respect in the most unlikely of places

A Private Experience
This tale shows the human connection between two women sheltering from a riot - a wealthy Igbo medical student and a poor Hausa market-stall owner. Adichie really is a phenomenal writer, her prose both clear and evocative, building tiny details into characters and a depth of setting in a perfect gem of a story.
