As members of the new African diaspora, their literature captures experiences of recent Nigerian migration to the United States and the United Kingdom. Examining representative novels, such as Adichie's \u003ci\u003eHalf of a Yellow Sun\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eAmericanah\u003c\/i\u003e, Habila's \u003ci\u003eWaiting for an Angel\u003c\/i\u003e, Abani's \u003ci\u003eGraceLand\u003c\/i\u003e, and Oyeyemi's \u003ci\u003eThe Icarus Girl\u003c\/i\u003e, the book discusses these novels' literary and narrative methods and provides detailed analyses of two of the most common themes: depictions of migratory experiences and representations of Nigeria. Placing the novels in their relevant historical, sociological, philosophical, and theoretical contexts, \u003ci\u003eNarrating the New African Diaspora\u003c\/i\u003e presents an insightful study of current anglophone Nigerian narrative literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maximilian Feldner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030057429\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030057428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/05\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.56d","brand":"Maximilian Feldner","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43940732797183,"sku":"9783030057428","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_6e606288-721b-424c-b3ff-1b1d5a287744.jpg?v=1681448877","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/narrating-the-new-african-diaspora-maximilian-feldner-9783030057428","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
