About this Event
Young Adult Book Group with Micah
Discusses Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
Pizza provided!
Led by Greenlight bookseller Micah, the YA Book Group is a space for the curious young reader interested in a curated, intentionally diverse and broad selection of books. While literature is of course at the core of this book group, cultivating our very own community and connections are also at the root of YABG, so if this sounds like a good time to you, come join the fun! Note: Young Adult Book Group is geared toward readers ages 13+.
For April, the group discusses Things Fall Apart by acclaimed Nigerian novelist, poet, and critic Chinua Achebe. The most widely read book in modern African literature, Things Fall Apart tells two overlapping, intertwining stories, both of which centerer around a fearless Igbo warrior in late 1800s Nigeria, before and after the European colonization of the continent. A powerful fable of perfectly harmonized twin dramas, Things Fall Aparts is the most illuminating and permanent monument we have to the modern African experience as seen from within.
