The novel has been translated into at least forty-five languages and has sold several million copies. The first novel of Achebe's, Things Fall Apart, is recognized as a literary classic and is taught and read everywhere in the English-speaking world. Not only through his literary contributions but also through his championing of bold objectives for Nigeria and Africa, Achebe has helped reshape the perception of African history, culture, and place in world affairs. His writings, including the novel Things Fall Apart, have introduced readers throughout the world to creative uses of language and form, as well as to factual inside accounts of modern African life and history. Chinua Achebe (pronounced Chee-noo-ah Ah- chay-bay) is considered by many critics and teachers to be the most influential African writer of his generation.
