Award-winning Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has revealed what she wants her legacy to be.
The renowned novelist said she wants to be remembered as a person who loved fiercely.
She, however, noted that she is not particularly interested in legacy because when she is gone, she wouldn’t know what would be happening in the world she left behind.
According to her, men are more concerned about legacy than women.
“I think it’s actually men who spend their time thinking about legacy. I don’t. I’m thinking about the next book I want to write,”; she said in an interview with DW News.
“I want my legacy to be a person who loved fiercely. That’s all I want my legacy to be. And by the way, when we die, we don’t know what happened, so why should I care what my legacy is? I don’t know where I would be. I might not know...
“But more personally, I want to be remembered as a person who loved the people she loved and the places she loved very fiercely.”;
