Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, autora ganadora del prestigioso premio Orange con su novela Medio sol amarillo, vuelve al territorio de la ficci?n con este volumen de cuentos, un libro que revela una voz madura crecida en la realidad de un pa?s como Nigeria.
-Edici?n especial limitada con pr?logo de Paula Bonet-
Conmovedores y profundos, estos relatos cuentan historias humanamente cercanas y geogr?ficamente remotas: historias de mujeres que sufren lejos de su pa?s de origen, historias de emigrantes que se encuentran a s? mismos en Am?rica, la tierra prometida. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, autora nigeriana, sabe hablar de ?frica alej?ndose de los titulares manidos sobre ese continente, pero sin dejar de lado la historia de su pa?s. Es una escritora interesada en c?mo los asuntos p?blicos afectan a los individuos, interesada en analizar desde la ficci?n el choque entre la modernidad y la tradici?n, las expectativas familiares y los sue?os de las nuevas generaciones. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the award-winning, bestselling author of Americanah and We Should All Be Feminists--a dazzling story collection filled with "indelible characters who jump off the page and into your head and heart" (USA Today). In these twelve riveting stories, the award-winning Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie explores the ties that bind men and women, parents and children, Africa and the United States. Searing and profound, suffused with beauty, sorrow, and longing, these stories map, with Adichie's signature emotional wisdom, the collision of two cultures and the deeply human struggle to reconcile them. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie burst onto the literary scene with her remarkable debut novel, Purple Hibiscus, which critics hailed as "one of the best novels to come out of Africa in years" (Baltimore Sun), with "prose as lush as the Nigerian landscape that it powerfully evokes" (The Boston Globe); The Washington Post called her "the twenty-first-century daughter of Chinua Achebe". Her award-winning Half of a Yellow Sun became an instant classic upon its publication three years later, once again putting her tremendous gifts - graceful storytelling, knowing compassion, and fierce insight into her characters' hearts - on display. Now, in her most intimate and seamlessly crafted work to date, Adichie turns her penetrating eye on not only Nigeria but America in 12 dazzling stories that explore the ties that bind men and women, parents and children, Africa and the United States.
