Things Fall Aprt - 2 & 3

The second part of Things Fall Apart was very different from the first. The first part seemed more like a story whereas the second part had more twists and turns. The ending was very unexpected and sad to me. I was surprised that Okonkwo would actually commit suicide after all the struggles he had been through. The second part really stressed the idea of colonization and the spreading of Christianity. Although there were still a few things I didn't understand in the book, it gave me a better insight and understanding of the African culture.
