Achebe second half
They so do not judge a book by it's cover. The title however is completely true about the story. Okonkwo's life truly did fall apart. Not only did he loose the people closest to him, but also banished and upon returning he found that many things have changed. All thanks to the "white man" that had come to his village. They had the people converting to their religion and causing his people to loose their culture. Then after hearing and experiencing some of the things that changed in his village he decided to fight back. Yet even when he kills the messenger his people are confused onto what is happening. Then he finally came to the realization that his people are beyond changing back to the way they were.
