«La flor púrpura» is Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's first novel, published by Random House in paperback (304 pages, in Spanish).
Fifteen-year-old Kambili and her brother Jaja live in a privileged house in Enugu under their father's rigid Catholic discipline. A stay with their aunt Ifeoma shows them a world of affection, laughter and freedom. On returning, tension grows; the novel speaks of family ties, repression and the awakening of youth in a turbulent Nigeria.
