Talking about books reminds me of some Nigerian or other African authors that have written very rich novels, which have even enjoy international recognitions.  Those days when I had time to read novels, the African Writers Series and Fontana Novels are my favourites.

Who can forget "Things Fall Apart" by our own Chinua Achebe? If you have read other books and yet to read any of Achebe's book, then you have not read any book.  What about "The Man Died" by Wole Soyinka? It is a must read by everybody.  Who have read "Cried The Beloved Country", by Alan Paton? Then you must know what I am talking about.

Anybody who has read books by African authors in this forum? Then lets share, our culture is very rich.

Your addiction validated that.
Do you have any other authors you have read his or her book to this extend?
