Things Fall Apart
by Chinua Achebe
“The missionaries had come to Umuofia. They had built their church there, won a handful of converts and were already sending evangelists to the surrounding towns and villages.
That was a source of great sorrow to the leaders of the clan, but many of them believed that the strange faith and the white man’s god would not last.”
