Ifemelu and Obinze are young and in love when they depart military-ruled Nigeria for the West. Beautiful, self-assured Ifemelu heads for America, where despite her academic success, she is forced to grapple with what it means to be Black for the first time. Quiet, thoughtful Obinze had hoped to join her, but with post–9/11 America closed to him, he instead plunges into a dangerous, undocumented life in London.

At once powerful and tender, Americanah is a remarkable novel that is "dazzling…funny and defiant, and simultaneously so wise." —San Francisco Chronicle Belletristik Historische Romane

Curious about how the story may end - the ending seems to be open and leaves the reader wonder - which might have been intended this way. However, I very much enjoyed the characters and glance into the world of modern Nigeria and live between the worlds across the Atlantic.

Very well narrated

Americanah is a fantastic story about Nigerians in Lagos as well as refugees or expats in the West.
However, the voice and the many accents of Adjoa Ando brought the characters to life and made it a very special experience.

outstanding performance
