A COASTLINE IS AN IMMEASURABLE THING A Memoir Across Three Continents

Liz Femi is a strong, confident narrator of this memoir turned meditation on transnational migration. She brings listeners the very personal experiences of the author, a Nigerian American who recounts her memories, thoughts, and meanderings, having moved from West Africa to England and then to the U.S. Femi helps listeners sympathize with the cultural and developmental dislocations the author undergoes. From child to young woman, from African to expatriate, as Daniel undertakes physical journeys that echo metaphorical journeys, listeners are swept along by Femi's lush, lyrical style. For fans of memoirs told in unexpected ways, this is a title to sink into. Femi shows off her talent as a nuanced narrator throughout this listening experience.
