On Chinua Achebe & The Truth Of Beneficent Nonfiction At Essay Daily

Posted by Jen Palmares Meadows on November 3, 2014 · Leave a Comment 

I’m proud to share my essay, “On Chinua Achebe and The Truth of Beneficent Nonfiction,” which is up at Essay Daily. Several years ago, I read Chinua Achebe’s essay, “The Truth of Fiction,” and an accompanying Conjunctions interview by Bradford Morrow with Achebe. Since then, I wondered if it was possible to apply Achebe’s tenets for beneficent fiction to a ‘beneficent nonfiction.’ The essay includes my meanderings.

Essay Daily is a filter for and an ongoing conversation about essays and magazines of interest. I encourage you to explore the many wonderful essays available there.

My sincere thanks and gratitude to Craig Reinbold and Ander Monson for giving me a place to share my thoughts.
