“Strange
indeed how love in other
ways so particular
will pick a corner
in that charnel-house
tidy it and coil up there, perhaps
even fall asleep – her face
turned to the wall!”
China Achebe (1971)

Not just #Achebe in 1958, but also #Yeats in 1919. Troubled times when the centre did not hold.

12 years ago (March 21, 2013) we bid #ChinuaAchebe farewell. As well as being a writer, he was a pivotal editor for AWS in the 60s/70s. A writer/editor myself, I wrote this piece in 2009 after #Achebe rejected the tag 'father' of African literature www.theguardian.com/books/booksb...

Recently finished reading Chinua Achebe's, Things Fall Apart
I'm not sure I've ever detested, then kind of liked, then sort of understood, and ultimately felt sorry for a main character before.

No better time to start than now

I'm excited to start my journey to read a book from every author in the alphabet, A-Z.
First up for "A" is Achebe's, Things Fall Apart.
Achebe is often considered the father of African literature.
