Achebe speaks<br />
Chinua Achebe provided a special<br />
closing to the community-wide book<br />
discussion event <strong>Princeton</strong> Reads<br />
with a special appearance at Nassau<br />
Presbyterian Church. More than 800<br />
people heard Achebe read from his<br />
seminal novel Things Fall Apart and<br />
discuss his work and the state<br />
of African literature in a discussion<br />
moderated by <strong>Princeton</strong> University<br />
philosophy professor Kwame Anthony<br />
Appiah. The event was co-sponsored by<br />
the library, Labyrinth Books, The Nathan<br />
Cummings Foundation and <strong>Princeton</strong><br />
University’s Center for African American<br />
Studies, Program in African Studies<br />
and Carl A. Fields Center for Equality<br />
and Cultural Understanding.<br />
