Reviews
A Most Anticipated Book of 2025 at Oprah Daily, Readers Digest, The Seattle Times, LitHub, The Chicago Review of Books, Marie Claire, Harper''s Bazaar, Elle, Radio Times "A rich, complicated book that spans continents and classes. . . . Moving through a comedy of manners and a hall of horrors, [their] stories overlap and intersect in ways that suggest the vast matrix of the African diaspora. . . . The extraordinary sympathy of Adichie''s storytelling makes Dream Count deeply compelling . . . . Adichie''s descriptions of these relationships are infused with comedy and pathos and a touch of romantic suspense, though the endings are foretold. What remains is the sweet sorrow of what might have been, rendered in language that feels entirely natural and yet instinctively poetic. . . . Adichie makes no effort to snap these four stories together neatly. Instead, the women interact and allude to one another naturally, allowing us periodically to register how they regard each other with sympathy or irritation, friendship or condescension. . . . The lives of Chia, Zikora, Omelogor and Kadiatou unfold here in different tones, but all benefit equally from Adichie''s ability to plumb their particular desires, their hopes and anxieties. You can hear that in the way she hones her style to reflect each woman''s education and experience. . . . Dream Count compels us to acknowledge, once again, that no story is ever just a single story." --Ron Charles, The Washington Post "Composed of the interlocking stories of four women, Chiamaka ("Chia"), Zikora, Omelogor and Kadiatou, it is also quintessential Adichie: ambitious, astute and powered by an accumulation of feather-light sentences that build to devastating weight." --Sara Collins, The Guardian "This is a complex, multi-layered beauty of a book. It is deeply and richly feminist... It explores big themes - misogyny, masculinity, race, colonialism, cultural relativism, the abuse of power, both personal and institutional - but it does so subtly, almost imperceptibly. The book''s lessons on life and the world we inhabit are not thrust didactically at the reader but considered through the profoundly human experiences of her characters... Dream Count is an extraordinary novel." --Nicola Sturgeon, The New Statesman "At times, Dream Count reads like a feminist War and Peace ... Suffused with truth, wit, and compassion, this is a magnificent novel that understands the messiness of human motivation and is courageous enough to ask difficult questions. It made me feel frustrated about the world but very good about the state of fiction." --Johanna Thomas-Corr, The Times (UK) "Dream Count features the interwoven stories of four women, written in Adichie''s vivid, bracing, highly entertaining style. Like Americanah, it is set in the US and Nigeria, and covers the immigrant experience, the sometimes tense dialogue between Africans and African Americans, the Americanisation of language and thought; as well as mother-daughter relationships, friendship, the pressure on women to marry and have children, and - aptly - late motherhood." --Charlotte Edwardes, The Guardian "Adichie weaves stories of heartbreak and travail that are timely, touching, and trenchant." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Adichie riffs brilliantly on what feminism means to her characters and renders each woman''s story in a distinctive voice...This is well worth the wait." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Every aspect of this transfixing, intimate, and astute group portrait is ablaze with scorching insights into the maddening absurdities and injustices that continue to plague women''s lives. . . Adichie''s magnificently vital, sharply forthright novel will be one of the year''s most sought after and resounding titles." --Booklist (starred review), A Most Anticipated Book of 2025 at Oprah Daily, Readers Digest, The Seattle Times, LitHub, The Chicago Review of Books, Marie Claire, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Radio Times "As in her previous works of fiction--most recently Americanah (2013)--Adiche makes her prose hum and throb with elegantly wrought and empathetic observations. . . . In today's world, when people seem at once too cut off and too much in each other's business, readers will feel communion with these tense, put-upon, yet resilient women in crisis. Adichie weaves stories of heartbreak and travail that are timely, touching, and trenchant." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Adichie returns to fiction after more than a decade with this superb tale of the fleeting joys and abiding disappointments of four African women on both sides of the Atlantic. . . . [She] riffs brilliantly on what feminism means to her characters and renders each woman's story in a distinctive voice...This is well worth the wait." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Adichie portrays four women united by culture, geopolitics, immigration, sexism, trauma, and longing. . . . [She] electrifies her depictions of each character with stinging details and lacerating social critiques to striking, hilarious, and heartbreaking effect ... Every aspect of this transfixing, intimate, and astute group portrait is ablaze with scorching insights into the maddening absurdities and injustices that continue to plague women's lives. . . Adichie's magnificently vital, sharply forthright novel will be one of the year's most sought after and resounding titles." -- Booklist (starred review)
