#AMERICANAH by Chimamanda Ngozi-Adichie Tops NYTimes List of 'The 10 Best Books of 2013



The year’s best books, selected by the editors of The New York Times 

Book Review.


FICTION
By Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
By turns tender and trenchant, Adichie’s third novel takes on the comedy and tragedy of American race relations from the perspective of a young Nigerian immigrant. From the office politics of a hair-braiding salon to the burden of memory, there’s nothing too humble or daunting for this fearless writer, who is so attuned to the various worlds and shifting selves we inhabit — in life and online, in love, as agents and victims of history and the heroes of our own stories.
