Things Fall Apart

235 Words1 Pages
This written task encompasses the novel Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe. I will use a dialogue to showcase the conversation between the characters Nwoye and Mr. Kiaga (translator of the white men). The dialogue takes place at the end of Chapter seventeen, where Nwoye tells Mr. Kiaga that he decides to join the Christian school. The dialogue is most appropriate to take place here because Nwoye is no longer afraid that his father will find out like before. Instead, he turns to Christianity as a way to rebel against his father. Nwoye struggles under his father, Okonkwo, who strives for masculinity and achievements in life. However, Nwoye’s attention focuses more on the moral folk tales told by his mother rather than the bloodiness of war
