Things Fall Apart es una novela del escritor nigeriano Chinua Achebe, publicada en 1958. Es considerada una obra fundamental de la literatura africana y ha sido traducida a más de 50 idiomas. La novela narra la historia de Okonkwo, un líder y guerrero de la etnia Igbo en Nigeria, y su lucha por mantener las tradiciones de su pueblo frente a la llegada de los colonizadores británicos y los misioneros cristianos. A través de la vida de Okonkwo, Achebe explora temas como el choque cultural, la identidad, el cambio social y la resistencia a la opresión.

Chinua Achebe was a Nigerian novelist, poet, and critic who is regarded as a central figure of modern African literature. His first novel and magnum opus, Things Fall Apart (1958), occupies a pivotal place in African literature and remains the most widely studied, translated, and read African novel. Along with Things Fall Apart, his No Longer at Ease (1960) and Arrow of God (1964) complete the "African Trilogy". Later novels include A Man of the People (1966) and Anthills of the Savannah (1987). Achebe is often referred to as the "father of modern African literature", although he vigorously rejected the characterization.
