  1. Rishi Jain

    Gives you a clear understanding of Nigeria. Easy and accessible. Really makes you think about things from a new angle. Very impressive!

  2. Anurag Kumar

    Achebe’s insights are sharp, but sometimes the writing felt a bit dense. Still, a valuable read for understanding colonial Nigeria. Explores a range of insights and realities. Overall an enjoyable experience.

  3. Lakshay Khare

    Found it a bit slow in places. Expected more based on Achebe’s other works. Still, worth reading for its historical context. The ideas presented are still relevant today.

  4. Daksh Dagar

    Achebe’s perspective is invaluable. Some essays were stronger than others, but on the whole, thought provoking and insightful. Loved the vivid language and descriptions.

  5. Kratika Garg

    Achebe’s reflections are so relevant even today! A deeply personal and political look at identity and colonialism. I was riveted the entire time. It was amazing.

  6. Mihir Ashok Redekar

    Loved the personal stories, especially about his family. The political stuff was interesting, but not as engaging for me. Would recommend to friends as something to read.

  7. Ankush

    Interesting but not captivating. Parts felt a little disconnected. Overall it was an ok read. I think this is a good starting point for reading more of Achebe’s work.

  8. Harsh Vardhan

    Provided a solid foundation for understanding the colonial era’s impact. While some essays were more engaging than others, this book is thought-provoking.

  9. Preeti Rana

    A powerful collection of essays. Achebe’s voice is clear and compelling. A must-read for anyone interested in African history. It is a reminder of the struggles faced.

  10. Sandeep

    A mixed bag. Some essays resonated with me, others didn’t. Still, Achebe’s writing is always worth exploring. The language can be tricky, but don’t let that stop you.
