it was absolutely unnecessary and disrespectful..
all these liberal leftists its either they are playing the race card or feminism.
imagine if a white writer had written some negative fiction about Michelle Obama, I'm sure chimamanda will be one of those crying racism and oppression...

why openly mock trump's wife and daughter because u dislike his administration..
.
.
addendum: although published this year, this novel was actually written in 2016.
that doesn't change my opinion, it is still a useless and unnecessary novel.art is not an excuse to be stupid.
you can't hide under the cover of fiction to launch veiled digs at the trumps.
True talk

America is a country of different races and race politics plays a significant role in their polity. It got trump and Obama elected.
Even adichie noted to BBC during hard talk that she did not have to worry about race until she came to America.
Cut her some slack. Race is everything in America.

In democracies, presidents are criticized. It is an integral and essential part of every healthy democracy. Stop displaying your ignorance.

Well...chimanda who ever the hell! You are! If you don't like Melania stay the fuvk! Away from the US, stay in your own bloody shiit hole country. like it or not melania is the First Lady of America! And you are just an African woman. grin jealousy is an illness.

It is obvious you have been denied the privilege of good education. Whatever you are smoking, stop. It has done severe damage to your brain.

Chimmamnda is a Racist and an Hypocrite. I'm surprised she still lives in the US afterall she hates Trump and his administration. I laugh when people say Blacks can't be racists because they are black.

So if you do not like the president of a country, you have to leave the country? You are an id.iot.

Not everyone has a brain though. Don't worry you are not the only slowpoke in this world. And since a slowpoke became the president of the US of A, there is still hope for you. grin

when people lose a debate or have nothing reasonable to contribute to a topic they resort to insults, don't give that individual the satisfaction, let him/her carry on with insults, he/she will get bored off it. just ignore. from that individuals comments you can see that he is a juvenile.

Novel? I thought it was a short story. And if you read it, you would know that the part about his son was friendly.

Having said that, keep in mind that this is fiction. Even if she alluded to Trump, it is still fiction. And even if it wasn't, artistic freedom also includes the right to mock politicians. It is funny that you come here to defend Trump and tell me not to be condescending and ignore all the people Trump has insulted, even disabled journalists.

Please, better not quote me again. Thank you.

I say the same thing everytime. She's there forming African and Feminists yet she's not going from one African country to another fighting for Education for the girl child.
She's an Hypocrite abeg. Notice she didn't say anything when the Senate was talking about her Sisters having every right to inherit their father's properties.

God bless you for this !!!

I'm so Happy grin

The mistake you made was replying "It". "It" isn't worth it, "It" mentioned me with insult too but I ignored. I'm bigger than that. Let's be the adults here dear. Mabinu, Joor!
