In this novel, the so-called sequal to "Things Fall Apart "Achebe creates a classic story of both personal and moral struggle, and turbulent social conflict.
Written before Achebe was thirty, No Longer at Ease""tell the story of Obi Okonowo, a man whose foreign education has separated him from his African roots and made him a part of a ruling elite whose corruption he finds repugnant. The agony of choosing between traditional values and the demands of a changing world is dramatized with unequaled clarity and poignancy. Still relevant more than forty years after it was written, No Longer at Ease remains a brilliant statement of the challenge facing African society.
