Our guest today is Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Her books include Half of a Yellow Sun, The Thing Around Your Neck, and the 2013 novel Americannah, whose popularity propelled Adichie to literary stardom. Like Adichie herself, Americannah straddles the cultures of America and Nigeria, considering the status and perceptions of Africans abroad as well as what happens when they return to their home countries. This month, Adichie will publish a new novel, Dream Count. As we look ahead to that, and Adichie’s upcoming visit to City Arts & Lectures, we’re re-broadcasting this 2014 conversation with her friend and fellow writer Dave Eggers.
