The defining experience of Chinua Achebe's life was the Nigerian Civil War, also known as the Biafran War of 1967-70. He has always maintained a considered silence on the events of those terrible years. Now, in a long-awaited memoir, he explores his personal experiences and reflections on one of modern Africa's defining events. 'Chinua Achebe's history of Biafra is a meditation on the condition of feredom. It has the tense narrative grip of the best fiction. It is also a revelatory entry into the intimate character of the writer's brilliant mind and bold spirit. Achebe has created here a new genre of literature' Nadine Gordimer
