Abstract

Cultures separated in time and space often exhibit reflections of a common foundation which becomes the basis of cultural ties and universal peace. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Half of a Yellow Sun is imbued with cross-cultural commonalities which bear close association with Indian cultural ethos. The narrative reveals several cultural parallels between Indian and African traditions, culture and history. This research paper attempts study the cross-cultural ties between Indian and African cultural heritage as revealed in the narrative of The Half of a Yellow Sun.
