|In the first chapters of the book “Things Fall Apart” by Chinua Acebe many characters are introduced. The main character is |
|Okonkwo who has positive and negative characteristics and has three wives and nine children. He is very hard working and |
|knowledgeable about what he needs to do to succeed. He is well known throughout the village, especially after winning a |
|wrestling match to ___the Cat. But he has problems controlling himself and has a lot of anger. There is even a scene in the book|
|where Okonkwo takes down his gun after becoming angered and shoots at one of his wives, but he misses. |
|So far I think the book has been better than I expected. There are a lot of things that I have never heard and a lot of things |
|that I can learn from reading more of this book. I think the plot is very interesting and from researching this book before, I |
|think that it will become a lot more complex.
