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, 'americanah' is a richly told story of love and expectation set in today's globalized world. |
