Explain why you think achebe chose to tell the story of the clashes between colonialism and african culture from an african point of view.

Chinua Achebe wrote about the way of life in Nigeria that avoided stereotyping African identity, and at the same time keeping a critical viewpoint of the actions humans take that lead to their downfall. The aim of Achebe´s fiction is to take normal everyday passions that are common to all human beings and expose them without falling prey to over-simplified stereotypes, which tend to dehumanize the subject of the story. In ´Things Fall Apart´, for example, the plight of the main character is described without resorting to any sort of value judgements on the village´s strict and un-western system of justice.

I hope I can help you :)

the narrator is a first person, participant one, who describes in the simple past tense important and difficult events in his earlier life. he also provides temporal markers as the month (january) and the time (12: 30 pm). finally the account of his experience is very detailed, to the extent that a participant narrator would talk the same way about his experiences. a good example of such detail is the mention of the “bovril ration” which historically was a native american food adopted by european explorers in arctic and antarctic regions due to its high level of calories.
