So many front page topics to check and comment. Why on earth will I settle to read this long epistle? Thought the op said 'short story'.





Meanwhile, Read no further because the person below me has mental problem. He has nothing meaningful to contribute.

At first, it was worthy of commendation. Now...when she speaks/writes, I scream ENOUGH ALREADY in my head.

Spot on.

Trump thus far has become the most vilified president. Ironically, the extreme hate for him might harden his base the more and could still deliver him the WH in three years' time.

Besides, her own country - whose current president she stylistically supported during the campaigns - is a mess.

some people may not like trump or Melania but who gives a shiit! I love Melania and i like trump!

Instead of people to let trump do his job as a president they are busy finding faults in everything he says or does, infact trump may even win another election. While the fake news media are busy making him look bad he is becoming more popular. And i will vote for trump again! grin

I love Adichie, I have all her books in my private library but this one is disappointing. The plot is boring, the characters are flat. The only thing I enjoyed was her use of language.

I believe Melania is shallow but I do not believe that she is as unhappy as she is portrayed in this story. I think this woman is almost as narcissistic as her husband and enjoys the media attention and also her husband's money. That being said, I would much rather be Michelle. Who would want to sleep with Donald? lipsrsealed

Similar topic has already been moved to front page. Lala this is duplication unless you are fighting for a spot on frontpage.

I think Adichie is a low self esteem racist
I am inclined to agree.
She is becoming annoying by the day.

I think it is channeling talent and energy in the wrong direction.
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.

why openly mock trump's wife and daughter because u dislike his administration..
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.
