Have you ever wondered whether you've truly been seen, and truly loved?
We all carry quiet questions about love. The one that got away. The choices we made. The version of ourselves we never let anyone meet. Sometimes it takes a story to help us understand our own.
The long-awaited novel from one of Africa's greatest storytellers.
Dream Count is the first novel in over a decade from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the celebrated Nigerian author of Purple Hibiscus, Half of a Yellow Sun and Americanah. It follows the lives of four women, their loves, friendships, regrets and longings, across Nigeria and America, in a moment when the whole world was forced to pause and reflect.
Told with Adichie's signature warmth, wit and emotional depth, it's a story about love, identity and what it means to live a full life on your own terms.
