Medio sol amarillo es una novela épica y magistral, que cuestiona el colonialismo, las alianzas étnicas y la responsabilidad moral de un conflicto, el de Nigeria, apoyado por las potencias mundiales.

-Edición especial limitada con prólogo de Lina Meruane-

Medio sol amarillo recrea un período de la historia contemporánea de África: la lucha de Biafra por conseguir una república independiente de Nigeria, y la consecuente guerra civil que segó la vida de miles de personas.

Con gran empatía y la naturalidad de una narradora comprometida, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie recrea la vida de tres personajes atrapados en las turbulencias de la década: el joven Ugwu, empleado de la casa de un profesor universitario de ideas revolucionarias; Olanna, la hermosa mujer del profesor, que por amor ha abandonado su privilegiada vida en Lagos para residir en una polvorienta ciudad, y Richard, un joven y tímido inglés que está enamorado de la hermana de Olanna, una mujer misteriosa que renuncia a comprometerse con nadie. A medida que las tropas nigerianas avanzan, los protagonistas de esta historia deben defender sus creencias y reafirmar sus lealtades.
