Mass Incarceration and Cell One

Cell One is a very well written story and overall I very much enjoyed it. The way Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie writes makes you feel like you are actually in the narrators shoes. She just makes you feel sorry the for what happens the family.

But, she also sheds light on some very important problems in not only our country but in many others around the world too: the problem of mass incarceration and violence within prisons. With her story, she helps shed light on a problem that is not often thought about in everyday life.

  1. I agree. I looked at the story the same way. It's interesting to think about what goes on in prison through a complex story with developed characters. Cell One is an example of what actually goes on in reality and it's an unfortunate thing. People are often unaware of what really happens and this is how Nnanambia was.
