In "Things Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe, the phrase "iron horse" is used by the character Okonkwo to refer to a bicycle, a new mode of transportation that arrived with the missionaries and colonizers. The term symbolizes the clash between traditional Igbo culture and the encroaching influence of Western technology and beliefs.
