Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie grew up in Nigeria.
Her work has been translated into over thirty languages and has appeared in various publications, including The New Yorker, Granta, The O. Henry Prize Stories, the Financial Times, and Zoetrope. She is the author of the novels Purple Hibiscus, which won the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize and the Hurston/Wright Legacy Award; Half of a Yellow Sun, which won the Orange Prize and was a National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist and a New York Times Notable Book; and Americanah, which won the National Book Critics Circle Award and was named one of The New York Times Top Ten Best Books of 2013. Ms. Adichie is also the author of the story collection The Thing Around Your Neck.
Ms. Adichie has been invited to speak around the world. Her 2009 TED Talk, The Danger of A Single Story, is now one of the most-viewed TED Talks of all time. Her 2012 talk We Should All Be Feminists has a started a worldwide conversation about feminism, and was published as a book in 2014.
Her most recent book, Dear Ijeawele, or a Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions, was published in March 2017.
A recipient of a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship, Ms. Adichie divides her time between the United States and Nigeria.
From the best-selling author of Americanah and We Should All Be Feminists comes a powerful new statement about feminism today--written as a letter to a friend.
A few years ago, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie received a letter from a dear friend from childhood, asking her how to raise her baby girl as a feminist. Dear Ijeawele is Adichie's letter of response.
Here are fifteen invaluable suggestions--compelling, direct, wryly funny, and perceptive--for how to empower a daughter to become a strong, independent woman. From encouraging her to choose a helicopter, and not only a doll, as a toy if she so desires; having open conversations with her about clothes, makeup, and sexuality; debunking the myth that women are somehow biologically arranged to be in the kitchen making dinner, and that men can "allow" women to have full careers, Dear Ijeawele goes right to the heart of sexual politics in the twenty-first century. It will start a new and urgently needed conversation about what it really means to be a woman today.
看豆瓣的书评都是一片其乐融融,大家更多的是在探讨收获与感悟。偶然点进微信读书的评论页。发现了一条让我很是诧异的高赞评论。(三个赞也是高赞,因为这本书也没什么人留言) 这个评论太具有典型性了。一定程度上或许代表了相当一部分人对“女权主义者”的误解与偏见。 原评...
评分文/舒念 从母系社会到父系社会,我们在历史上看,我们并没有花太多的时间,但从父权制社会到现在的女权主义,我们花了太多太多的时间去改变,而在今天,女权主义看似拥有了自己的一席之地,却也免不了遭到更多的误解与拒绝,甚至还产生女权主义危害国家的观点。 事实上女权主义...
评分"Feminist is the new F-word." 看到评论许多人赞同书的内容却忌讳女权主义这个词,再次真切地感到女权主义污名化之严重。女权从来都不仅仅和女人有关,女权的诉求恰恰是平权,是个体和群体的平等,无论个体的性别、种族、年龄、阶级、文化背景、能力、性取向。 Women's Rights...
评分这本书是一本女孩子必读的书,是新婚女性,是新手妈妈必读的书。 女权主义一直是我们所追求的,但是要想实现平等,真的是任重而道远。 我们要求平等,但不是伪女权。我们不仅要求一视同仁,而且要求所有观念都是中性的。 书中的观点是说给新生女孩的,但是对任何年纪的女孩都有...

A must read for all the parents out there.
评分简洁明了,孩子们应该人手拥有一本
评分我是真的希望这本书能出中文版。我希望我的母亲和所有告知我要为婚姻家庭有所隐忍有所牺牲的长辈们看看。你首先要是你自己你才能扮演好另外一个人的妻子的角色。婚姻是共同成长而不是某一方的牺牲来换得另一方的飞跃来导致两个人的差距越来越大。我爸常喜欢说你为什么喜欢的都是一些男孩子喜欢的东西。我喜欢仅仅是因为我喜欢而已,与性别无关。我少年时期最烦的一句话就是女孩子到了高中就不行了, 男孩子后劲足,完全大狗屎。我有太多的话想说,都在这本书里了。我想呼吁的并不是女权,只是平权而已,equality and equity.
