Description: |
|
With stunning clarity and unabashed truthfulness, Anim tells the tale of
a young woman's emotional journey across an ocean. Beginning with a
difficult childhood in Africa, we follow our protagonist, Lucy, as she
comes of age. There are good times as well as bad; heartbreak, along
with the realization of dreams and ambitions. We see Lucy as a free
spirit who always goes after what she wants. In Africa, she uses her
intellect and charm to live a privileged lifestyle. When she arrives in
America, however, she finds one thing preventing her from continuing to
enjoy that lifestyle... her husband Mathew. After much conflict and
misery she takes her destiny into her own hands, using her
resourcefulness to achieve the American Dream. Anim has provided a
vision of a unique version of the American Dream as we watch this young
woman rise from humble beginnings to a position of status, a position
which carries with it unexpected concerns that our protagonist is forced
to deal with. At times both humorous and sorrowful, this is certainly a
story not to be ignored. |
