About the book

Achebe's Women is an interrogation of the image and status of women in Nigerian novelist Chinua Achebe's fiction. The text is informed by two primary considerations: First, as a tribute to the recently passed fiftieth anniversary of Achebe's seminal work, Things Fall Apart; second, to revisit the portraiture of female characters in order to discover the true image of women - regardless of the patriarchal context.
