"When old people speak it is not because of the sweetness of words in our mouths; it is because we see something which you do not see".
Chinua Achebe
A literary icon Nigerians and Africans are proud of.
I grew up reading Achinue Achebe's novels and I still love reading literature till today.His books are actually part of what made me who I am today. "Things fall apart and the center cannot hold". Profound but true. Deep thinker and he makes our culture and language attractive. He weaves words in a way that is unique and delightful. I always like to read collections of novels over and over. Respect.
...He is not dead, but has only gone to glory to join his Ancestors!His work will speak forever. May his Soul Rest in Peace!
Adieu Baba
When Things Fall Apart A Man of the People is No Longer at Ease. RIP Chinua Achebe and inspiration for generations to come. May African nations follow your ideology to save itself
