The poignant speech We Should All Be Feminists was first delivered back in 2013 at Ted圎uston. News broke in June that her best-selling novel Americanah was picked up by Kenyan Oscar-winning actress Lupito Nyong’o, who will bring the diasporic love story to life and also star in the film adaptation of the novel. Abreast all of this attention the Nigerian author is still keeping busy wielding her pen to produce narratives that voice the thoughts, hopes and perspectives of those often unheard of in popular mainstream literary works. Her latest textual offering takes form as a long essay adapted from her TED Talk heard 'round the world (it reached over 1 million views on youtube). Her second novel Half of a Yellow Sunhit the silver screen (and is finally set to open in Nigerian theaters).
2014 has proven a groundbreaking year for literary genius Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
