The Education of a British-Protected Child
Chinua Achebe
Chinua Achebe's characteristically measured and nuanced voice is everywhere present in the seventeen beautifully written pieces contained in this collection. In The Education of a British-Protected Child, Achebe gives us a vivid portrait of growing up in colonial Nigeria and inhabiting its middle ground, recalling both his happy memories of reading novels in secondary school and the harsher truths of colonial rule. In African-American Visitations, we witness the terrifying nature of the African diaspora and what it means not to know from whence he came. Politics and history figure in What Is Nigeria to Me? Africa's Tarnished Name, and Politics of the Politicians of Language. And Achebe's extraordinary family comes into view in My Dad and Me and My Daughters.
