Summary

"En descendant de l'avion à Lagos, j'ai eu l'impression d'avoir cessé d'être noire."
Ifemelu quitte le Nigeria pour aller faire ses études à Philadelphie. Jeune et inexpérimentée, elle laisse derrière elle son grand amour, Obinze, éternel admirateur de l'Amérique qui compte bien la rejoindre. Mais comment rester soi lorsqu'on change de continent, lorsque soudainement la couleur de votre peau prend un sens et une importance que vous ne lui aviez jamais donnés ?

Pendant quinze ans, Ifemelu tentera de trouver sa place aux États-Unis, un pays profondément marqué par le racisme et la discrimination. De défaites en réussites, elle trace son chemin, pour finir par revenir sur ses pas, jusque chez elle, au Nigeria. À la fois drôle et grave, doux mélange de lumière et d'ombre, Americanah est une magnifique histoire d'amour, de soi d'abord, mais également des autres, ou d'un autre. De son ton irrévérencieux, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie fait valser le politiquement correct et les clichés sur la race ou le statut d'immigrant, et parcourt trois continents d'un pas vif et puissant.

Great story teller

I read the physical book in English and listened the audio version in French, as I’m learning the language.

Great book!! And wonderful performance of the narrator.
