Home and Exile Tapa blanda - 2001
de Chinua Achebe
Africa's most prominent writer and author of "Things Fall Apart" offers his first fully autobiographical work, which serves not only as a moving account of his exceptional life but also as an extended exploration of the European impact on African culture.
Descripción de la solapa
More personally revealing than anything Achebe has written, Home and Exile-the great Nigerian novelist's first book in more than ten years-is a major statement on the importance of stories as real sources of power, especially for those whose stories have traditionally been told by outsiders.
In three elegant essays, Achebe seeks to rescue African culture from narratives written about it by Europeans. Looking through the prism of his experiences as a student in English schools in Nigeria, he provides devastating examples of European cultural imperialism. He examines the impact that his novel Things Fall Apart had on efforts to reclaim Africa's story. And he argues for the importance of writing and living the African experience because, he believes, Africa needs stories told by Africans.
