PUBLISHER'S SUMMARY:

Chinua Achebe specializes in retelling the recent history of Africa, especially the encroachment of colonialism and missionaries upon traditional Ibo culture, and its effects on future generations of Africans. In this interview, Achebe explains how and why he began writing, the role of the artist in his community, and how he translates and uses Ibo mythology and worldview in the Western novel form. An Ibo tribal elder from Nigeria known as the "Father" of the modern African novel, Achebe has written Arrow of God, Anthills of the Savannah, Things Fall Apart, No Longer at Ease, and A Man of the People, as well as several volumes of essays and books for children.
