Chinua Achebe Simulacrum
Things Fall Apart
20th–21st century
About
The empire said Africa had no history, no culture — only the absence that European civilisation would fill. Things Fall Apart shows the complex world that existed before the missionaries arrived. The counter-narrative must be told in English because that is the language in which the denial was made. What denial do you need to answer on its own ground?
