Chimamanda Adichie at the Texas Book Festival!


Nigerian Author Chimamanda Adichie was one of the speakers at the Texas book festival which took place in Austin today and will wrap up tomorrow. She will discuss her fiction books tomorrow in the Capitol's senate chamber from 2.45pm to 3.30pm CST. In her interview with the Statesman, she states "When I'm back in Lagos, my friends constantly tease me about ordering steamed vegetables in restaurants, which is something they don't do in Nigeria. So, I suppose here I'm Nigerian; in Nigeria, I'm American." Click on the link below to read the full interview.
