Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Author Novels & Stories

Lagos, Nigeria – July 18, 2035, 6:42 p.m. The bookstore was packed—folding chairs full, people standing along the walls, air thick with perfume, paper, and Lagos heat. Banner above the small stage: “GLOW AFTER THE FIRE – A Conversation with Chinedu Okonkwo.” Chino sat beside the moderator, copy of his book in hand—cover simple: two shadows holding each other under a single bulb, Lagos lights faint in the background. Title in bold white: Glow After the Fire.

Chimamanda thought to herself. Chidinma's fashion magazine is one of the most trending fashion magazines in Nigeria, Africa, U.S.A, the UK and Canada, so it was a big offer. "I'm in, just a date tho" Chimamanda rolled her eyes reluctantly like she wasn't so interested. " You've made a good decision, you won't regret it, ” Chidinma said almost immediately. "Hurray" Chisom screamed at the top of her lungs excitedly like a little girl that was handed sweets.

You'd expect me to write more about my culture, my people. I recently told a friend to read my work on Wattpad and he said he'd try. Eventually he called me and said he finished my Book Insomnia and my edited version of After dark. He told me he enjoyed it but he expected something more about Nigeria and Our lifestyles. There was something he said that hit home. He said and I quote: I don't really blame you sha. You're just whitewashed. Sometimes I wish Nigerians would embrace their heritage and stop acting like oyibo.

She didn't see the book's title because half of the purple cover was peeled off. "Purple Hibiscus," Maryam replied excitedly. "Written by Chimamanda Adichie, my favorite author," she added. "Isn't that too much for you? Do you even understand a word?" May thoughtfully asked.

The night before we leave, the night before January the sixth, I learn two things: there are two kinds of hunger, and one can keep you up all night, staring at the ceiling and missing a place and people you are yet to leave. It is two O'Clock in the morning and disconcertingly quiet when I decide that I can't endure the trashing and turning. I take a book from the shelf that will no longer be mine by evening, purple hibiscus, with the cracks on its cover and Adichie's delighted face above its blurb, and I go to the sitting room that will not be ours by evening.

So where is this author Khads from that you are so proud of and what's your favorite novel. He asked her again. Well she is our own Ugandan lady based in the United Arab Emirates. And my fav. novel is my famous hubby and his mysterious hidden wife which she is completed. I love her other novels too such as her new one his high class maid.
