Narrative Landscape Press has teamed up with Genti Audio to bring the highly anticipated audiobook of “Dream Count,” written and narrated by literary icon Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, to Nigerian audiences. This partnership marks a significant step in making African literature more accessible in diverse formats, ensuring that readers and listeners alike can immerse themselves in the rich narratives of the continent.
“Dream Count,” Adichie’s latest novel, explores the lives of four women as they navigate love, longing and desire. Described by The Telegraph as a “luxuriously layered new novel,” the story delves into the complexities of the human heart, asking profound questions about happiness, honesty and the nature of love. With Adichie herself narrating the audiobook, listeners are promised an intimate and captivating experience, as her voice brings the characters and their emotions to life.
“We are thrilled to bring ‘Dream Count’ to listeners in Nigeria, especially with Chimamanda narrating it herself,” said Ojiugo Uche, Co-founder & CEO of Genti Media. “Her voice and intonation elevate and deepen the storytelling, making it even more powerful. We know Nigerian listeners will resonate deeply with this experience.”
Preorders for the audiobook are now open on the Genti Audio app, available on iOS and Play Store, at a special price of NGN 8,000. The official release is set for March 4. In addition to the audiobook, preorders for hardback and paperback editions are available through the Narrative Landscape Press website.
This collaboration underscores the shared mission of Narrative Landscape Press and Genti Audio to amplify African voices and stories. As Adichie continues to solidify her place as one of the most dynamic writers of our time, ‘Dream Count’ promises to be a must-read and must-listen for literature enthusiasts across Nigeria and beyond.
