Whilst disappointing compared to Things Fall Apart, it was an interesting view into the steady erosion of Nigerian society after the horrific effects of colonialism. However, the plot and characters made it a hard read and it felt lost compared to Things Fall Apart. An ok read, but not a strong book.
