True or False?

Answer 2

False

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a better description of what Chinua Achebe was trying to write against. He was aware of all the novels that had been written in English about Native Africans, but these were written from a European perspective and he wanted to write in a different way. Achebe's objective was to write a novel that no one else had written. An African perspective on Africa. This made his writing extremely significant and innovative.
