Naše životy, naše kultury, sestávají z mnoha překrývajících se příběhů. Spisovatelka Chimamanda Adichie vypráví příběh o tom, jak nalezla svůj autentický kulturní hlas - a varuje nás, že pokud nasloucháme pouze jedinému příběhu o jiném člověku či zemi, vystavujeme se riziku zásadního neporozumění.

Inspired by Nigerian history and tragedies all but forgotten by recent generations of westerners, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s novels and stories are jewels in the crown of diasporan literature. Full bio »
