"The most commonly read sub-Saharan African novel, Chinua Achebe's 'Things Fall Apart' is set just before the turn of the 20th century in the Ibo land of southeastern Nigeria...This collection of critical essays deals with a number of facets of the Achebe diamond: speech and linguistics, narrative techniques, culture, colonialism, and choreography... Neither a handbook nor a glorified 'masterplot,' this is a collection of serious critical essays for college and graduate libraries. It includes a small but useful bibliography and a collection of the proverbs used in the novel. A useful source of critical opinion on a book that has become the Western gateway into the world of African literature." -CHOICE
