Adichie's writing is poignant and evocative, offering a powerful portrayal of one woman's journey towards self-discovery and empowerment in the face of societal expectations and judgments.
The novel Zikora tells the story of a young woman named Zikora who finds herself in a complex web of emotions and societal expectations after becoming pregnant. The book begins with Zikora, a successful lawyer living in Lagos, Nigeria, experiencing complications during her pregnancy. Zikora's love life is a central theme of the novel.

This was a short and interesting read, I'll highly recommend
