Things Fall Apart
The first time that I set my eyes on this book, I thought that the culture of Niger was peculiar and different from what I have been thinking. Usually colored people have culture that is close to nature, and regard patriarchy and honor very much. But through this book I learned that even though their culture is not very different from what I expected it's unique and creative also. Usually we think Africans don't have culture because they are uneducated and undeveloped. They bear too many children, have no government, believe in superstition belief. This kind of thinking is because we are ignorant of their culture. Maybe it's because all we see is how they look outside. After reading this book, anyone would think that they want to visit Africa. Their compound, house made of mud, songs they sing, music and sword called machete that they use when cutting yems. And also used when killing Ikemefuna. If I could get a chance to go into the book I would visit Okonkwo and his village to see the incidents that actually happened in the book with my own eyes and ask them questions. They don't have government nor laws but they have culture and they are grouped and in order. To better understand their culture, let us explore some things about A
They bring kola to their friends when they visit them. The subtitled issues are 7 altogether. Maybe they believed kola lengthened their lives. He lack the ability to care for his family and no will to either. Hard labor and diligence was the most important thing to Okonkwo. In the book young women were considered marriageable in their mid-teens. Having Ikemefuna in the family was nicest thing that happened to Nwoye. That is why he acted like a macho man. This kind of thinking is a problem among current society. What they originally believed in was part of their life but it didn't give them what they wished for.
