If you’ve taken IH2 (soon to be Mosaic, see our article here), you’ve probably read Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart, the milestone 1958 novel the presents colonization through the eyes of the colonized.

Achebe will be at the Free Library tonight celebrating the 50th anniversary of the book. The auditorium is sold out, but simulcast seating is still available and Achebe will be signing copies of the book after his lecture. Tickets are $14/adults and $7/students, so bring your I.D.s.
