Nigerian novelist and playwright, Biyi Bamidele |
Bandele is one of the most versatile and prolific of the U.K.-based Nigerian writers, having turned his hand to theater, journalism, television, film, and radio, as well as the fiction with which he made his name. Acclaimed as both a prolific playwright and a versatile novelist, his 1997 adaptation of fellow Nigerian Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart for the British stage confirmed his place as an important voice on the post-colonial stage.
He wrote the screenplay for Half a Yellow Moon, a novel by Chimamanda Adichie which will be released this summer worldwide. He currently resides in London.
