Things Fall Apart Response
Subject:
Lila Balakrishnan Ms. Badger World Studies II per. 3 6 March 2013 Short Written Response TFA Chinua Achebe created the fascinating work of Things Fall Apart which detailed the life of Okonkwo, a man of the Igbo people, as his life, and the way of his people, ?fell apart? with the coming of Christianity. A tragic hero due to his crumbling life and flawed nature, Okonkwo truly epitomizes this character type through his tragic and unnecessary death. Okonkwo?s death by trying to show his people how they were losing their culture was truly in vain and as such, affected the work differently.

Words of a Victim As I tried to fight back my tears, faint cries are heard from the other room. My head is spinning with fear, I?m next. I pray for the safety of my mom. Soon enough I hear heavy footsteps pounding in my ears. Step by step getting louder, the door swings open. I hide under my sheets, staying quiet, not knowing what is going on. I feel the sheets lifting. It?s too late, it?s too late, and I?m found. Again and again his swinging his fist. Bruises everywhere, broken bones, open wounds. I instantly get a flash back; dad picking me up, whispering coldhearted shit. As usual I lay back thinking it was all going to end soon.
