Chris, Ikem and Beatrice are like-minded friends working under the
military regime of His Excellency, the Sandhurst-educated President
of Kangan. In the pressurized atmosphere of oppression and
intimidation they are simply trying to live and love - and remain
friends. But in a world where each day brings a new betrayal, hope
is hard to cling on to. Anthills of the Savannah (1987), Achebe's
candid vision of contemporary African politics, is a powerful
fusion of angry voices. It continues the journey that Achebe began
with his earlier novels, tracing the history of modern Africa
through colonialism and beyond, and is a work ultimately filled
with hope.
