Have you ever read Chinua Achebe?


Interpreter or translators?


What's your ideology of a writer?
He meant 'The Interpreters', a novel by Wole Soyinka. The very first sentence of it may confuse for years. It's one of my best novels, I intend reading it again.

And please, Chinua Achebe is not notable for complex diction; that's why people often refer to him as a story teller.

you got better in what? Use of English, understanding English?, or you got better at being more confused?
Let's say use of English, since it appears you have some catching up to do in that area.

To be honest, wole soyinka's books are overrated, i'm not hating, i'm just saying Nigerians should really read books to know that his books are overrated
You simply don't understand his cryptic use of words. I was like that, then I got better. I savour every sentence for him.
