Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart - Book Review

Achebe has a way of sticking with you, even if it is only through words. And an excellent example of his ability to stick with you comes from this seminal work, Things Fall Apart. Yet, what more can be said about this novel that hasn’t been said already. It is the staple of many curriculums in Africa, and there are many of his other works that deserve just as much praise. But like any other great work of classical fiction, one can always come back to this novel and draw something from it. And what I’d like to highlight here is the silent world of Achebe, manifested in three important characters. These three characters bring alive the world of subtext and inference, of courage and silent resistance.
