Things Fall Apart es una novela del escritor nigeriano Chinua Achebe, publicada en 1958. La obra narra la vida de Okonkwo, un líder y guerrero de la etnia Igbo en la aldea de Umuofia, Nigeria, antes de la llegada de los colonizadores europeos. A través de la historia de Okonkwo, Achebe explora temas como el choque entre la tradición y la modernidad, el impacto del colonialismo en la sociedad africana y la lucha por la identidad cultural. La novela ofrece una visión profunda de la vida en Nigeria a finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX, y es considerada una de las obras más importantes de la literatura africana.

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.
