In this fictional work of art I think that Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s ideas in “The Danger of a Single Story” comes through very clearly.

Throughout this story we get supporting material of direct acknowledgement of the danger of the single story

However‚ I found the way she handled the death of her father and the
