Little Bee


Chris Cleave tells the story of Little Bee, a refugee from Nigeria seeking asylum in England. I can't give any more away because the story grabs you and drags you along as it unfolds. It is inspirational and heartbreaking at the same time, and it terrifies me that so many women have actually lived Little Bee's tale. The book is creatively written, and it is not a story I will soon forget. Personally, it intensified my desire to never visit Africa.
