Tonight's journey takes us through The Sacrificial Egg, by Chinua Achebe, offering a moment of calm and reflection. • SUMMARY • "The Sacrificial Egg" is a short story by Chinua Achebe that explores the clash between traditional African beliefs and the forces of modernity. Set in Nigeria during a time of cultural and social transition, the story follows Julius Obi, a clerk who becomes entangled in the tension between old and new ways. When he accidentally steps on a sacrificial egg, a powerful symbol in the traditional Igbo religion, he faces the consequences of disregarding ancient customs, highlighting the struggle between progress and tradition. • BACKGROUND • Chinua Achebe was a Nigerian novelist, poet, and critic, widely regarded as one of the most influential African writers of the 20th century. His works often explore themes of cultural identity, colonialism, and the effects of Western influence on African societies. "The Sacrificial Egg," published in 1959, is one of Achebe's notable short stories, reflecting his deep understanding of the complexities of post-colonial Africa and the importance of cultural preservation. • BEDTIME STORIES FOR ADULTS • Step into the enchanting world of Buddug's literary gatherings, a cozy sanctuary illuminated by the gentle glow of timeless tales and cherished classics in the public domain.
