All the names definitely messed with me thoughout this story! I got so confused as who was who but once I could finally get all the names straight the story made a whole lot more since.
Everything that happened in this story seemed to fall apart at some point in the story. Whether it was a relationship, a person, or the whole society. It is like the world today. Nothing ever stays the same anymore. At some point society as we know it falls apart and a new one is picked for a while.
At some points I got mad at some of the peopel in the society like Okonkwo because I love the freedom to express yourself and not have to follow the crowd that someones picks for you but rather pick the direction that you want to go. I was so happy when his eldest son picked his own way instead of following what was being pushed on him. Ever person in society is different in some way and we find our own way to express it!
Almost everone in the story could be considered an outsider at some point. Again whether it was it was in their society, family, or friends! We are all on the outside at some point!
