    Looking back at his own life and education, this book by the giant of African literature is a deeply personal and essential key for unlocking all of Achebe's literature and politics.

    Incisive, illuminating and intimate, this book by one of Africa's most influential writers is also an encounter with the man behind his work, offering readers a rare insight into his personal life and education. A moving account of an exceptional life, this is above all a book that articulates persuasively why literature matters. Stories are a real source of power in the world, Achebe proves, and to imitate the literature of another culture is to give that power away.
