He revealed that the last good book he’s read is ‘Burma Boy’, authored by Biyi Bandele, director of the movie ‘Half of a Yellow Sun’ based on the Chimamanda Adichie book of the same name.
Gyang said when he met Bandele in New York, he told his fellow director he’d like to make the book into a film. “I really liked it because it treated what was serious, a war situation, with such humour that relaxes the reader. The story was all about Africans who don’t know their left from their right, thus fighting a war without a single idea about why it is taking place.”
Kenneth Gyang is the recipient of several awards, including his debut feature film ‘Confusion Na Wa’ produced by Tom Rowland-Rees.
