NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The award-winning author of We Should All
Be Feminists and Americanah gives us this powerful statement about
feminism today--written as a letter to a friend.
A few years ago, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie received a letter from a
childhood friend, a new mother who wanted to know how to raise her baby
girl to be a feminist. Dear Ijeawele is Adichie's letter of response:
fifteen invaluable suggestions--direct, wryly funny, and perceptive--for
how to empower a daughter to become a strong, independent woman. Filled
with compassionate guidance and advice, it gets right to the heart of
sexual politics in the twenty-first century, and starts a new and
urgently needed conversation about what it really means to be a woman
today.
