Since my last blog, I have discovered the reason for the major conflict between Richard and Odenigbo. I should have guessed that Olanna, Odenigbo's girlfriend, was at the heart of the conflict.
I am on page 357, the war is raging, the people have divided themselves into Nigerians/vandals and Biafrans/refugees, and the Biafrans, including the main characters, are living in unsanitary conditions.
This blog is for book lovers. Initially this blog focused on the books selected by members of the Okefenokee Book Club who used to meet in Waycross, Georgia. Now, it is about my reading interests. I will also continue to post any interesting information related to writers, libraries, and book clubs in general.
