Things Fall Apart
The District Commissioner says that he will write a paragraph in his book about Okonkwo. Do you think a paragraph is enough to summarize Okonkwo's life? Explain.

No, a paragraph cannot begin to tell the life of Okonkwo and what he stood for. He is a great wrestler, warrior, landowner, family man, and farmer. He holds titles in his village and is a clan leader. Although harsh with his family and short-tempered, his loyalty to his clan is never an issue. He sacrifices himself for the honor of his clan.
