An Image of Africa by Chinua Achebe
5.0
TWO SHORT ESSAYS — THE FIRST ON HEART OF DARKNESS WHICH HAS LONG BEEN ON MY TBR PILE & SEEMS AS IF IT’S AS RACIST AS YOU MIGHT EXPECT.
SECOND IS ACHEBE’S IDEAS ABOUT THE FAULTS OF NIGERIA & HOW TO FIX THEM. REALLY ELOQUENT, ON A SUBJECT I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT, BUT HAVE AN INTEREST IN BECAUSE MY DAD SOMETIMES TALKS ABOUT HIS TIME IN NIGERIA WHEN HE WAS WORKING AS A MARINE ENGINEER.
