Description: This book defines the role of the literary artist in terms of redemption. Arguing that the artist has a social responsibility in society, it explores Achebe's role as a writer as demonstrated in his novels. The book is as fascinating as it is challenging, and offers new insights into our understanding of Achebe's novels.
