From Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the Orange Prize-winning author of Half of a Yellow Sun, come twelve dazzling stories in which she turns her penetrating eye on the ties that bind men and women, parents and children, Nigeria and the West. In 'A Private Experience,' a medical student hides from a violent riot with a poor Muslim woman whose dignity and faith force her to confront the realities and fears she's been pushing away. In 'Tomorrow Is Too Far,' a woman unlocks the devastating secret that surrounds her brother's death. The young mother at the center of 'Imitation' finds her comfortable life threatened when she learns that her husband back in Lagos has moved his mistress into their home. And the title story depicts the choking loneliness of a Nigerian girl who moves to an America that turns out to be nothing like the country she expected; though falling in love brings her desires nearly within reach, a death in her homeland forces her to re-examine them. Searing and profound, suffused with beauty, sorrow and longing, this collection is a resounding confirmation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's prodigious storytelling powers.
奇瑪曼達•恩戈茲•阿迪契1977年齣生於尼日利亞南部城市埃努古,父親是統計學教授,母親是大學教務。阿迪契起初在尼日利亞大學學習醫藥學,後轉至美國,在東康涅狄格州立大學學習傳媒學和政治學,之後在約翰•霍普金斯大學獲得創意寫作的文學碩士學位。
阿迪契寫過詩歌和劇本,並時有短篇小說在文學雜誌上發錶,多次獲奬。2003年,她的首部長篇小說《紫色木槿》(Purple Hibiscus)齣版,故事以一個15歲孩子的視角,講述瞭20世紀90年代尼日利亞的政治騷亂。小說入圍2004年橘子小說奬,並獲2005年英聯邦作傢奬。她的第二部長篇小說《半輪黃日》(Half of a Yellow Sun),講述的是尼日利亞內戰爆發之前和期間的事。小說獲2007年橘子小說奬。2010年,阿迪契入選《紐約客》評齣的“二十位四十歲以下的小說傢”。
The only flaw, if I may, is that there’s too much Adichie in her characters at times. In other words, her characters don’t seem to enjoy full liberty to be themselves, to express their extensive range of emotions and deliberations, or to explore possibilities when mired in predicaments.
評分完全沒跳齣提到在美國的尼日利亞人時腦海中浮現齣的關鍵詞 大多數人物仿佛都是臉譜化的幽靈 為瞭說教而存在

評分適閤中學生看,需要深入瞭解非洲文化。民主,腐敗,種族歧視,暴亂,貧富差距,社會地位,自由,性彆歧視等都是探討的話題。
尼日利亚太遥远了,不仅是地理位置的遥远,还有文化心理上的遥远。 我开始“文学带我看世界”这个计划的时候,还大致分了区块,尼日利亚,非洲,西非,西非就有好多国家,我能闭上眼睛想起世界地图上非洲大陆的模样,所以西非大概在哪里,有个大概的印象。我没有去查背景资料,...
評分I would recommend “The Thing Around Your Neck” in this short-story collection. If you like the idea of “the exotic”, this story will show, once again, that “the exotic” exists nowhere else but in your own mind, and as always, says everything about you...
