Book excerpt: “A true classic of world literature . . . A masterpiece that has inspired generations of writers in Nigeria, across Africa, and around the world.” —Barack Obama “African literature is incomplete and unthinkable without the works of Chinua Achebe.” —Toni Morrison Nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read Things Fall Apart is the first of three novels in Chinua Achebe's critically acclaimed African Trilogy. It is a classic narrative about Africa's cataclysmic encounter with Europe as it establishes a colonial presence on the continent. Told through the fictional experiences of Okonkwo, a wealthy and fearless Igbo warrior of Umuofia in the late 1800s, Things Fall Apart explores one man's futile resistance to the devaluing of his Igbo traditions by British political andreligious forces and his despair as his community capitulates to the powerful new order. With more than 20 million copies sold and translated into fifty-seven languages, Things Fall Apart provides one of the most illuminating and permanent monuments to African experience. Achebe does not only capture life in a pre-colonial African village, he conveys the tragedy of the loss of that world while broadening our understanding of our contemporary realities.

A Postcard with a quotation related to the topic sends readers off with an encouraging word, as they travel on towards their destination hope.

Being born into a very dysfunctional home only compounded the odds against him. A harsh and, at times, abusive father drove him toward the edge of desperation. Turning to civic leaders and the church brought him no relief at all. If anything, it multiplied his problems exponentially. With no hope in sight anywhere on the horizon, his cry from the heart for help was heard by a very caring and loving God. But would it be in time? Had the answer come along too late? And would he ever find peace in his own life and forgiveness for those whose actions had driven him to his place of despair?
