Americanah: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Miękka oprawa – 14 maja 2019
Opcje zakupu i dodatki
‘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. There she suffers defeats and triumphs, finds and loses relationships, all the while feeling the weight of something she never thought of back home: race. Obinze had hoped to join her, but post-9/11 America will not let him in, and he plunges into 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. But after so long apart and so many changes, will they find the courage to meet again, face to face?
Fearless, 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.

Opis produktu
Recenzja
‘A brilliant novel: epic in scope, personal in resonance and with lots to say’ Elizabeth Day, Observer
‘A delicious, important novel from a writer with a great deal to say’ The Times
‘A brilliant exploration of being African in America … an urgent and important book, further evidence that its author is a real talent’ Sunday Telegraph
‘An extremely thoughtful, subtly provocative exploration of structural inequality, of different kinds of oppression, of gender roles, of the idea of home. Subtle, but not afraid to pull its punches’ Alex Clark, Guardian
‘A tour de force … The artistry with which Adichie keeps her story moving, while animating the complex anxieties in which the characters live and work, is hugely impressive’ Mail on Sunday
‘Adichie is terrific on human interactions … Adichie’s writing always has an elegant shimmer to it … Wise, entertaining and unendingly perceptive’ Independent on Sunday
‘Adichie paints on a grand canvas, boldly and confidently … This is a very funny, very warm and moving intergenerational epic that confirms Adiche’s virtuosity, boundless empathy and searing social acuity’ Dave Eggers
‘“An honest novel about race” … with guts and lustre … within the context of a well-crafted, compassionate, visceral and delicately funny tale of lasting high-school love and the sorrows and adventures of immigration’ Diana Evans, The Times
‘[A] long, satisfying novel of cross-continental relationships, exile and the pull of home … Adichie’s first novel for seven years and well worth the wait’ FT
‘Alert, alive and gripping’ Independent

Ifemelu è una nigeriana emigrata negli Stati Uniti che vede i suoi connazionali cambiare identità, perdere la loro unicità per omologarsi agli americani, per farsi accettare da loro, anzi per essere a tutti gli effetti come loro, giungerà a fare cose di cui si pentirà ma sul finale la protagonista diventa artefice del suo destino e afferma la sua identità. Super consigliato
Elle nous parle de « race » en décomplexant complètement le sujet, elle le ramène à la compréhension de monsieur tout le monde. Elle dit des vérités de façon subtile sans pointer du doigt le moindre coupable. Elle dit des choses qu'on ressent tous les jours et cela fait plaisir de savoir qu'à l'autre bout du monde quelqu'un d'autre éprouve, ressent les mêmes choses que vous et surtout sait les retranscrire avec autant de brio.
C'est bien écrit, c'est émouvant, parfois c'est drôle, souvent triste lorsqu'on se rend compte de l'importance encore accordée à la race dans nos sociétés actuelles. Nous faisons toujours face aux mêmes barrières raciales, religieuses (que ce soit aux USA où se situe l'histoire ou ailleurs) alors que les nouvelles technologies sont censés nous rapprocher. Le monde n'a pas encore changé, pour le moment on se cache c'est tout....
Bref j'adore, j'adore, j'adore et le conseille à tous ceux qui s'intéressent à de tels sujets traités avec réalisme, compréhension et une profonde compassion.
Cet auteur est génial. Elle prend le temps d'écrire et à chaque fois l'attente valait largement la peine.
Vous pouvez la découvrir en commençant par son ouvrage « Half of a yellow sun » quelque chose de tout aussi fabuleux.
Acho que a Chimamanda se perdeu um pouco na metade, com várias descrições de cenas e personagens que nem eram tão importantes assim. Não é o melhor livro que já li dela, mas acho que vale a leitura.
