In this major new study, Jago Morrison offers a comprehensive reassessment of his work as an author, broadcaster, editor and political thinker. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith new, historically contextualised readings of all of his major works, this is the first study to view Achebe's oeuvre in its entirety, from Things Fall Apart and the early novels, through the revolutionary Ahiara Declaration - previously attributed to Emeka Ojukwu - to the revealing final works The Education of a British Educated Child and There Was a Country. Contesting previous interpretations which align Achebe too easily with this or that nationalist programme, the book reveals Achebe as a much more troubled figure than critics have habitually assumed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAuthoritative and wide-ranging, this book will be essential reading for scholars and students of Achebe's work in the twenty-first century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jago Morrison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526116790\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526116796\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/16\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Jago Morrison","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44540579905791,"sku":"9781526116796","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_655923f2-1a8b-4828-8118-5c012db038e6.jpg?v=1700588698","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chinua-achebe-jago-morrison-9781526116796","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
