That book is interesting. Kind of flawed in weird way but still good. I'll be curious to hear your take on it when you're finished.
Coincidentally, I'm currently reading a book that Achebe was famously critical of:
Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad
In the debate over whether or not this book is racist, I would it most certainly is, but mostly it's a product of it's time. It's still a great book so far.
