This classic of African literature has a plain, straightforward writing style and an episodic plot. How much you enjoy it will depend on what kind of reader you are:
Do you like Hemingway? Then the plain style will probably appeal to you, and this could be an interesting completement to Papa's African stories.
Do you like late Henry James? Are you someone who likes long, elaborate sentences with a focus on the interior life of characters? Then this may not be the book for you.

Things Falll Apart
This book is a brilliant read, and tells of life in African society before Europeans arrived to destroy life as Africans knew it!!!

Great book! Great price!
The price couldn't be better (mine was 99 cents) for a book that was required reading for my LIT class. The book itself was engaging and interesting. I was thrilled that it was easy to read and kept my interest.
