Book Club: Alles zerfällt/ Things Fall Apart (1958)
To kick off the series on March 24, we will read Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe. The novel tells the story of the conflicts faced by a traditional village when confronted with colonial rulers. "With his novel, Chinua Achebe created the literary voice of Africa." (S. Fischer Verlage)
Host: Henri-Michel Yéré, President of the Culturescapes Board, author, historian, and lecturer at the Centre for African Studies in Basel.
The reading group is free and takes place in German/English. Duration 90 minutes.
Any level of knowledge is welcome, once or every time. The hosts contextualise the work, after which we discuss questions, irritations and what we find particularly successful together.
