Things Fall Apart
by Chinua Achebe

The husband highly recommended this contemporary classic to me, saying if you have any aspirations to do cross-cultural work abroad, you need to read this book.  Considering he's read it twice, I figured this would be a good book to take on next.  I'm in need of some good fiction since the last book, even though it had some elements of fiction, had a good chunk of heady real life commentary that I found a bit difficult to wrap my head around at times.  So, here's to enjoying a good story with some insight on understanding and interacting with other cultures.
