…By the way, if you find something on there you like, then go give an upvote to ekm2: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4955541 From that list, I would recommend the following to anybody: (Achebe - Things Fall Apart), (Austin - Pride and Prejudice), (Laxness - Independent People), (Marquez - Love in the Time of Cholera), (Gogol - Dead Souls [translation by MacAndrew is the most fun one I've read]), (Twain - Huck…
哎呀！这话说得既毒舌又藏得挺深！我的本意在表达中被误解了。我对非洲完全没有偏见。我读过阿契贝，而且把《瓦解》（Things Fall Apart）和《百年孤独》并列为我读过最好的作品之一。
Oh my! That was harsh and cleverly concealed too! My observation was lost in translation. I have nothing against Africa. I read Achebe and consider Things Fall Apart to be one of the best books I have read along with Hundred Years of Solitude.
推荐几本：亚历山大·索尔仁尼琴的《伊凡·杰尼索维奇的一天》、奇努阿·阿契贝的《瓦解》（Things Fall Apart）、琼·里斯的《藻海无边》、安娜·阿赫玛托娃的诗集、阿莫斯·图图奥拉的《鬼丛林里的生活》、大江健三郎的《个人的体验》、安部公房的《砂女》、《那…

与其在网上看垃圾内容，我更推荐这本讲非洲殖民主义的经典神作：https://www.amazon.com/Things-Fall-Apart-Chinua-Achebe/dp/03...
Instead of reading crap on the internet, I recommend this classic book on colonialism in Africa: https://www.amazon.com/Things-Fall-Apart-Chinua-Achebe/dp/03...
我没有哪句最喜欢的书摘名言，因为选哪句完全取决于我当时的人生阶段正在经历什么。就今天而言，我脑海中浮现出最喜欢的一段话出自奇努阿·阿契贝的《瓦解》（Things Fall Apart）——奥康科沃站在那里看着死人。他知道乌姆奥菲亚不会开战了。他之所以知道，是因为他们放走了其他信使。他们陷入了一片喧哗，而不是付诸行动。…
I don't have a favorite book quote, as my choice depends on what I'm going through or experiencing at a particular point in my life. As at today, my favorite quote that comes to mind is from Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe - Okonkwo stood looking at the dead man. He knew that Umuofia would not go to war. He knew because they had let the other messengers escape. They had broken into tumult instead of action.…
…http://books.google.com/books?id=L1USAAAAIAAJ&printsec=f... 不用说，这两本书在大学里都吃不开。事实上，教授要是敢教后一本书几乎肯定会被炒鱿鱼。我确实挺喜欢《瓦解》（Things Fall Apart）。注意，阿契贝写出这本书并大火是在他成为教授之前。大学在这其中提供了什么附加价值吗？这又回到了思想多元性的问题。如果你真的想…
…http://books.google.com/books?id=L1USAAAAIAAJ&printsec=f... Needless to say, neither of these books is popular in the university. In fact, a professor would almost certainly get fired for teaching the latter book. I did enjoy Things fall apart. Note that Achebe wrote it and it became popular before he was a professor. Was there value-add on the part of the university? And again the point about intellectual diversity. If you actually want…
