He does not make the error of assuming that evil is a monopoly of white civilization. All power corrupts. He qualifies his acerbity with a compassion for ordinary people which is unsentimental and clear-eyed. He conveys the physical atmosphere of Nigerian town life with sharp economy. THIS IS PROBABLY THE BEST BOOK TO COME OUT OF WEST AFRICA [emphasis mine]. " .

ACHEBE, CHINUA.
No Longer At Ease.
Doubleday and Company, Inc., New York: Softcover. Good condition. In this novel, written before he was thirty, Achebe has created a classic story of both personal and moral struggle, and turbulent social conflict. Obi Okonkwo's foreign education has separated him from his African roots and made him part of a ruling elite whose corruption he finds repugnant. The agony of choosing between traditional values and the demands of a changing world is dramatized with unequaled clarity and poignancy. Chinua Achebe is gloriously gifted with the magic of an ebullient, generous, great talent. - Nadine Gordimer.

Things Fall Apart (African Writers Series)
Heinemann, 1981. Mass-market paperback , 7.6 x 5 x 0.4 inches. One of Chinua Achebe's many achievements in his acclaimed first novel, Things Fall Apart, is his relentlessly unsentimental rendering of Nigerian tribal life before and after the coming of colonialism. First published in 1958, just two years before Nigeria declared independence from Great Britain, the book eschews the obvious temptation of depicting pre-colonial life as a kind of Eden. Instead, Achebe sketches a world in which violence, war, and suffering exist, but are balanced by a strong sense of tradition, ritual, and social coherence. Light edge wear , Very Good.

Haarlem, In de Knipscheer, 1987. Gekartonneerd met geïllustreerd voorplat 21x14. 2e verbeterde druk. 238 blz. In dit boek beschrijft Achebe kalm en doordringend hoe Obi, de trots van het dorp die op kosten van de gemeenschap in Engeland studeerde, na terugkomst door een onweerstaanbare samenloop van omstandigheden ten onder gaat in corruptie. Deze Obi Okonkwo - de eigentijdse versie van de klassieke krijger van weleer - vervreemdt van zijn eigen achtergrond, komt in opstand tegen oude denkpatronen, maar verliest de strijd om het eigen persoonlijk en integer evenwicht..
