THINGS FALL APART tells two overlapping, intertwining stories, both of which center around Okonkwo, a “strong man” of an Ibo village in Nigeria. The first of these stories traces Okonkwo's fall from grace with the tribal world in which he lives, and in its classical purity of line and economical beauty it provides us with a powerful fable about the immemorial conflict between the individual and society. The second story, which is as modern as the first is ancient, and which elevates the book to a tragic plane, concerns the clash of cultures and the destruction of Okonkwo's world through the arrival of aggressive, proselytizing European missionaries. These twin dramas are perfectly harmonized, and they are modulated by an awareness capable of encompassing at once the life of nature, human history, and the mysterious compulsions of the soul. THINGS FALL APART is the most illuminating and permanent monument we have to the modern African experience as seen from within.

評分是什麼原因使得一個人覺得這個世界土崩瓦解瞭,再也迴不到從前? 那就是一個人精神世界所信仰的那個神被徹底的摧毀! 奧貢喀沃是個勇敢的戰士,他信奉著他的宗族的神,他信奉勇敢、勤勞、榮譽、地位帶來的心理的滿足。當帝國的代錶帶來瞭眾神之神—“上帝”來到這個非洲的部落...
