Nature Helps...

四位女性、四段人生，交織出一則細膩深刻的故事。住在美國的奈及利亞旅遊作家齊亞瑪卡，在疫情中回望過去的愛情與選擇；她的好友茲可拉，一向堅強自信，卻在感情挫敗後不得不尋求幫助；表姊歐美洛歌是金融圈菁英，開始重新認識自己；而家務助理卡蒂雅圖則面對可能改變人生的困境。本書細膩描繪愛與失落，也探問誠實與幸福的真正模樣。Chiamaka is a Nigerian travel writer living in America. Alone in the midst of the pandemic, she recalls her past lovers and grapples with her choices and regrets. Zikora, her best friend, is a lawyer who has been successful at everything until—betrayed and brokenhearted—she must turn to the person she thought she needed least. Omelogor, Chiamaka’s bold, outspoken cousin, is a financial powerhouse in Nigeria who begins to question how well she knows herself. And Kadiatou, Chiamaka’s housekeeper, is proudly raising her daughter in America—but faces an unthinkable hardship that threatens all she has worked to achieve. In DREAM COUNT, Adichie trains her fierce eye on these women in a sparkling, transcendent novel that takes up the very nature of love itself. Is true happiness ever attainable or is it just a fleeting state? And how honest
