A powerful, tender story of race and identity by Chimamanda
Ngozi Adichie, the award-winning author of "Half of a Yellow
Sun."
Ifemelu and Obinze are young and in love when they depart
military-ruled Nigeria for the West. Beautiful, self-assured
Ifemelu heads for America, where despite her academic success, she
is forced to grapple with what it means to be black for the first
time. Quiet, thoughtful Obinze had hoped to join her, but with
post-9/11 America closed to him, he instead plunges into a
dangerous, undocumented life in London. Fifteen years later, they
reunite in a newly democratic Nigeria, and reignite their
passion--for each other and for their homeland.
