Larry Bowlden reviews a novel by a Nigerian woman author who came to the U.S. as an academic and who then returned home having acquired American ways, American tastes, and an American-eye view of the world. The book is entitled Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (Chim-muh-MAHN-duh en-GOH-zee ah-DEECH-ee-ay).
