        <description><![CDATA[Certainly he does.  Sam, Ikem and Chris are all caught up in the mechanism of politics, and all of them lose at least a little of their integrity.  Beatrice, however, makes a conscious effort to remain removed from politics, and she is the one at the end who both survives and demonstrates integrity and hope for the future.  Achebe uses the contrast between the characters to demonstrate the negative influence of politics.

        <description><![CDATA[Beatrice and Elewa are the only two women detailed in the book. They are as different as they are similar.
Beatrice in general represents the woman that has been schooledthe intellectual and independent woman. She has her own ideas and she knows how to stand by them in any way that is possible. her patriotic interferance in seducing Sam at the party  organized for the American journalist shows how far she can go to stop the name of her state...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Excellent question! In Anthills of the Savannah it is clear that by having two main female characters (Beatrice and Elewa), Achebe is focussing on women to an extent that he has not really done in his other novels. And what women they are! In particular Beatrice is the most rounded character in this novel and Achebe goes to some lengths to present her in mythical terms - representing her as Idemili, the goddess who oversees mortality. It is...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The best place for you to start is with a character analysis of Sam. He is the major force of corruption and misuse of power in the novel. Sam is obviously someone who was untrained and unprepared for leadership before he became president, and now given a position of absolute power, he lets it go to his head. He insists that everyone calls him "Excellency" and wants to be President for life. However, he completely ignores that with power comes...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Women play an important role in Anthills of the Savannah. The author, Chinua Achebe, is notable for portraying women as  strong, believable characters.  Women are instrumental as keepers of tradition in the tribe, even as the role of tradition is changing in the face of modernity, a history of oppression, and corrupt governments.  It is also the women especially who maintain a sense of morality and humanity during times of difficulty....]]></description>
