Americanah
by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
A delicious, important novel - The Times
Alert, alive and gripping - Independent
Some novels tell a great story and others make you change the way you look at the world. Americanah does both - Guardian
As teenagers in Lagos, Ifemelu and Obinze fall in love. Their Nigeria is under military dictatorship, and people are fleeing the country if they can. The self-assured Ifemelu departs for America, where she experiences both defeats and triumphs, finds and loses relationships, all while feeling the weight of something she never considered back home: race.
Obinze had hoped to join her, but post-9/11 America will not let him in, leading him to a dangerous, undocumented life in London. Thirteen years later, Obinze is a wealthy man in a newly democratic Nigeria, while Ifemelu has achieved success as a blogger.
After so long apart and so many changes, will they find the courage to meet again, face to face? Fearless and gripping, spanning three continents and numerous lives, the National Book Critics Circle Award-winning Americanah is a richly told story of love and expectation set in today's globalized world.
