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.

評分看豆瓣的書評都是一片其樂融融,大傢更多的是在探討收獲與感悟。偶然點進微信讀書的評論頁。發現瞭一條讓我很是詫異的高贊評論。(三個贊也是高贊,因為這本書也沒什麼人留言) 這個評論太具有典型性瞭。一定程度上或許代錶瞭相當一部分人對“女權主義者”的誤解與偏見。 原評...
評分圖書標籤: 女性主義 女權主義 英文原版 Feminism 女性 ChimamandaNgoziAdichie 英文 NonFiction
Wow. 看到評論許多人贊同書的內容卻迴避和忌諱女權主義這個詞,再次真切地感到女權主義汙名化之嚴重。女權從來都不僅僅和女人有關,女權的訴求恰恰是平權,regardless of gender, race, age, and sexual orientation. 為什麼避諱使用女權主義這個詞呢,我們支持的呼籲的feminism,它的名字就叫女權主義啊。And if you claim you support equality but are still having trouble saying the word feminism, you don't really understand what it is and you don't actually support equality.
評分“The knowledge of cooking does not come pre-installed in a vagina. Cooking is learned.” W.O.W.
評分我是真的希望這本書能齣中文版。我希望我的母親和所有告知我要為婚姻傢庭有所隱忍有所犧牲的長輩們看看。你首先要是你自己你纔能扮演好另外一個人的妻子的角色。婚姻是共同成長而不是某一方的犧牲來換得另一方的飛躍來導緻兩個人的差距越來越大。我爸常喜歡說你為什麼喜歡的都是一些男孩子喜歡的東西。我喜歡僅僅是因為我喜歡而已,與性彆無關。我少年時期最煩的一句話就是女孩子到瞭高中就不行瞭, 男孩子後勁足,完全大狗屎。我有太多的話想說,都在這本書裏瞭。我想呼籲的並不是女權,隻是平權而已,equality and equity.
評分Reading her book is always refreshing.
評分2020年第4本書,養孩子必讀,不光養女孩需要閱讀,養男孩也有很多值得藉鑒參考的地方。
