AB This project offers a critical perspective on how the British rule was established in Nigeria and Kenya during the High Colonialism period in Africa, with the purpose of analysing the intense changes that the intolerance of the settlers produced over the native communities. On this matter, Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart" and Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o's "The River Between" constitute the major example to illustrate the Igbo and Kikuyu pre-colonial societies. Furthermore, both novels reveal the deep cultural conflicts that arose as a result of the British imposition.
