A review by mrmysteryfox
Petals of Blood by Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o

3.0

I found this book a bit of a hard read; meandering through flashbacks which often felt a bit convoluted. Overall painted a strong picture of the effects of colonisation and also post-independence of Kenya from a peasants viewpoint. Would recommend his other book I have read, Wizard and Crow, over this.
