Abstract

In postcolonial African literature, problems of identity and immigration are extremely important. Cultural identity crisis is at the heart of both Chinua Achebe's and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's literary works. Identity and culture distinguish one person from another. Chinua Achebe's and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's literary works deal with the issue of a cultural identity crisis. In contemporary African writing, the loss of identity and the search for it has been a recurring issue. Achebe and Adichie redefine the African cultural identity through their literary texts. This research article examines the African culture and identity crisis with reference to Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Americanaha.
