Things Fall Apart (The African Trilogy, #1)

by Chinua Achebe

A man’s life from birth to death was a series of transition rites which brought him nearer and nearer to his ancestors.

A man belongs to his fatherland when things are good and life is sweet. But when there is sorrow and bitterness he finds refuge in his motherland. Your mother is there to protect you.

‘There is nothing to fear from someone who shouts.’
