“García Márquez’s fictional universe has the same staggeringly gratifying density and texture as Proust’s Faubourg Saint-Germain and Joyce’s Dublin….Arguably the best of the Latin Americans.”–Martin Kaplan, The New Republic
“It is the genius of the mature García Márquez that fatalism and possibility somehow coexist, that dreams redeem, that there is laughter even in death.’–John Leonard, New York Times

Arrow of God is a 1964 novel by Chinua Achebe, his third. It followed his book Things Fall Apart. These two works, along with the third book, No Longer at Ease, are sometimes called The African Trilogy, as they share similar settings and themes. The novel centers on Ezeulu, the chief priest of several Igbo villages in Colonial Nigeria, who confronts colonial powers and Christian missionaries in the 1920s. The novel was published as part of the influential Heinemann African Writers Series.
The phrase “Arrow of God” is drawn from an Igbo proverb in which a person, or sometimes an event, is said to represent the will of God. Arrow of God won the first ever Jock Campbell/New Statesman Prize for African writing.
