TFA #2

     In the end of the novel, when Okonkwo hangs himself, I was disappointing that he would do such a cowardly thing, an act so cowardly that the members of his village can't bury him, only the white men can. When the whole of the book is devoted to Okonkwo trying to make Nwoye and his sons to not be like his father and then he just ups and hangs himself doesn't sit well with me, it is just not something he would do. But, what this could be representing is that the sudden change that was brought to his society caused his own snapping like Nwoye, he just lost connection with his won culture when they stopped being the warlike people they once were. So, in a way, Okonkwo is like his son in that he doesn't connect with his people, and this ultimately led to Okonkwo's death by his own hands because he has become like his father, weak and unable to do as he sees fit.
