No Longer at Ease is a 1960 novel by Nigerian author Chinua Achebe. It is the story of an Igbo man, Obi Okonkwo, who leaves his village for an education in Britain and then a job in the Nigerian colonial civil service, but is conflicted between his African culture and Western lifestyle and ends up taking a bribe. The novel is the second work in what is sometimes referred to as the "African trilogy," following Things Fall Apart and preceding Arrow of God, though Arrow of God chronologically precedes it in the grand story of the trilogy. Things Fall Apart concerns the struggle of Obi Okonkwo's grandfather Okonkwo against the changes brought by the British.

  • Le Malaise est un roman de 1960 de l'auteur nigérian Chinua Achebe. C'est l'histoire d'un homme Igbo, Obi Okonkwo, qui quitte son village pour une éducation en Grande-Bretagne puis un emploi dans la fonction publique coloniale nigériane, mais est en conflit entre sa culture africaine et son mode de vie occidental et finit par accepter un pot-de-vin. Le roman est le deuxième ouvrage de ce que l'on appelle parfois la « trilogie africaine », après Tout s'effondre et précédant Flèche de dieu , bien que ce dernier le précède chronologiquement dans la grande histoire de la trilogie. Tout s'effondre concerne la lutte du grand-père d'Obi Okonkwo, Okonkwo, contre les changements apportés par les Britanniques. (fr)
