DESCRIPTION:This month we will be reading
Dream Count
by Chimamanda Ngozi
Adichi
The nove
l features four women whose stories are told in turn: Chiamaka, a Nigerian<
br />travel writer stranded in America during the pandemic, her friend Ziko
ra who is a
successful lawyer, her cousin Omelogor who works in financ
e before coming to study
in the US, and Chiamaka's housekeeper
, Kadiatou.
In Dream Count, Adichie trains her fierce eye on these wom
en in a sparkling,
transcendent novel that takes up the very nature of
love itself. Is true happiness ever
attainable or is it just a fleeti
ng state? And how honest must we be with ourselves in
order to love, a
nd to be loved? A trenchant reflection on the choices we make and
thos
e made for us, on daughters and mothers, on our interconnected world, Dream
Count pulses with emotional urgency and poignant, unflinching observa
tions on the
human heart, in language that soars with beauty and power
. It confirms Adichie’s
status as one of the most exciting and dynamic
writers on the literary landscape.
