Americanah

Americanah

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Ifemelu und Obinze sind jung und verliebt, als sie das vom Militär regierte Nigeria in den Westen verlassen.

Die schöne, selbstbewusste Ifemelu macht sich auf den Weg nach Amerika, wo sie sich trotz ihres akademischen Erfolgs zum ersten Mal damit auseinandersetzen muss, was es bedeutet, schwarz zu sein. Der ruhige, nachdenkliche Obinze hatte gehofft, sich ihr anzuschließen, doch da Amerika nach dem 11. September für ihn verschlossen war, stürzt er sich stattdessen in ein gefährliches, undokumentiertes Leben in London. Fünfzehn Jahre später kommen sie im neuen demokratischen Nigeria wieder zusammen und entfachen ihre Leidenschaft füreinander und für ihr Heimatland neu.
