Migration is becoming an overwhelming issue all over the world. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (1977- ) deals with the theme of migration in her literary works. At the opposite of her contemporaries, she is interested in women migrants and deals with migration issues that go beyond the current framework of migration theories. Through a critical and stylistic analysis, this paper aims to show Adichie’s stylistic and aesthetic handling of migration in her works that deal with the theme of migration, namely Purple Hibiscus (2004), Half of a Yellow Sun (2006), The Thing Around your Neck (2009), and Americanah (2013). The methodological and theoretical framework of this study is based on international migration theories and socio-criticism, namely post-colonial theories of migration and return migration, that help the reader understand the causes, reasons and complexities of the phenomenon of migration and its impact on the writer’s hybrid identity.
