Things Fall Apart

by Chinua Achebe

3.5

About the book

A simple story of a "strong man" whose life is dominated by fear and anger, Things Fall Apart is written with remarkable economy and subtle irony. Uniquely and richly African, at the same time it reveals Achebe's keen awareness of the human qualities common to men of all times and places.

A real tour de force; but a plain tale simply told.
