Beschreibung
Ifemelu and Obinze are young and in love, but dissatisfied with life in Nigeria under military dictatorship. Therefore, they decide to seek happiness abroad, and their paths diverge. Confident Ifemelu goes to study in America, where she experiences both defeats and victories, finds and loses other loves, all under the pressure of something she never thought about back home — racial issues. Quiet and contemplative Obinze, who is not accepted by America, influenced by the September 11 attacks, embarks on a dangerous life as an illegal immigrant in London. Thirteen years later, Obinze is a wealthy man in newly democratic Nigeria, and Ifemelu is a well-known blogger commenting on American society and culture from the perspective of an African woman. Despite her professional success and comfortable life in America, Ifemelu feels the desire to return to her homeland. Will she and Obinze find the courage to meet face to face after so many years and changes?
