One of the BBC''s ''100 Novels That Shaped Our World''A worldwide bestseller and the first part of Achebe''s African Trilogy, Things Fall Apart is the compelling story of one man''s battle to protect his community against the forces of changeOkonkwo is the greatest wrestler and warrior alive, and his fame spreads throughout West Africa like a bush-fire in the harmattan. But when he accidentally kills a clansman, things begin to fall apart. Then Okonkwo returns from exile to find missionaries and colonial governors have arrived in the village. With his world thrown radically off-balance he can only hurtle towards tragedy.
