Americanah

Loved up young couple Ifemelu and Obinze leave Nigeria, which is under military rule, and head to the West. Beautiful and self-assured Ifemelu, moves to America but for the first time in her life and despite her academic success, is forced to grapple with what it means to be black. Obinze, who is quiet and thoughtful, had hoped to join her but as post 9/11 closes its doors to him he instead slips into a dangerous, undocumented life in London. Americanah is a modern romantic classic about star crossed lovers that also explores race, what it means to be Black in the United States, and the search for a place called home. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, award-winning author of We Should All Be Feminists and Half of a Yellow Sun, has written a new introduction to a novel whose themes will resonate with every generation.
