A Couple of Random Thoughts about Things Fall Apart
I would hold off reading these until you complete the book, but last year I posted some passages about the novel that you might find interesting:
- A passage about Okonkwo sowing the seeds of his own destruction
- Some thoughts about tragedy and the artistry of the work
- Two ways of reading about Ikemefuna
I’ve also put together a reader guide for the novel.
Enjoy the rest of break.
