Chinua Achebe's masterful tale Things Fall Apart is a useful collateral reading assignment in a high school or college world history class. It can expand and personalize students' understanding of traditional African culture, the African perspective on the late nineteenth-century imperialism, and disorder in contemporary Africa. It provides good topics for analytical papers and generates enthusiastic class discussion.
