Things Fall Apart

I heard he was getting married and wanted to come off the road to settle down and start a family.

Before God, there is no slave or free man. All people including osu are children of God. Further, the osu were required to shave off their hair, as it was a mark of their heathen belief.

Okonkwo is a villain. He kills enemy villagers. He shames Amalinze the Cat by defeating him. He fights his own villagers and demans those who he sees as less than worthy. He beats his wife and children, even during the Week of Peace. He almost shoots Ekwefi his second wife, with his gun. He takes 3 wives simultaneously, having stolen another man's wife to take as his second wife. He even kills his own adopted son, and kills a fellow clansman, albeit unintentionally. Okonkwo takes joy in war, and the memory of killing people. While not committing violence, Okonkwo encourages the rest of the village to commit violence against Christians. Okonkwo threatens to kill his own eldest son Nwoye, forcing Nwoye, to leave his house, mother, sisters and brothers, and the rest of his family. Okonkwo rejects any intention of reconciliation with Nwoye (Isaac). Okonkwo helps burn down a man's compound and then burns down the church. He continues his message of hate, saying that they should have killed the white man. Finally, he kills a kotma, and then commits suicide like a coward rather than face up to consequeces.

Twins are a bad omen, and the twins are taken to the evil forest in earthenware pots and left to die.

It is not specifically mentioned, but it is assumed that the priestesses are chosen by the gods themselves.

The Oracle of Agbala pronounced that Ikemefuna must die.

This depends on what version of the book you have. It could be page 20.

Okonkwo was so dexterous that Amalinze could not get a firm hold onto him.

The beat of the drums filled Okonkwo with fire. Okonkwo felt the desire to conquer and subdue.

Okonkwo's exile is an enriching experience because it teaches Okonkwo the true value of extended family, and also why women are valued. In general, Okonkwo is a self-made man, who values the strength of man, but he is ignorant to many of the strengths and values of women. The setback teaches Okonkwo some humility and how to deal with failure which is seemingly caused by his own will.

Further, Okonkwo's exile allows the huge gathering of Okonwko's extended family which enables Uchendu to show briefly the affect of people gathering to form one unit and one voice, something that is lost with the newer generation. Okonkwo's immediate family is enriched with the experience of going to another village and learning their ways.

No character in the book says it. However, it is described as just a saying used by the Ibo people to discribe how much fun the people would have on moonlit nights.

because he kill a men

Obeirika replied that it was too late and that men and their sons had already joined the ranks of the strangers. If they were to drive out the white men, their own people would bring soldier reinforcements, and wipe out the village.

Nwakibie lent Okonkwo several hundred yams.

Ezinma, the only surviving child of Ekwefi, is considered to be an ogbanje. Technically, all the other children of Ekwefi were also considered to be the same ogbanje. Ezinma continues to have the same spouts of illnesses that plagued Ekwefi's other children.

This is a place where things are bought and sold.

This event did not happen. Ekwefi was still alive when Okonkwo hung himself. However, many of Ekwefi's children had died before.

The snapping bow represents Nwoye's spirit. It is much like putting too much load on one's back and breaking it. Instead of crying out in sadness, there is the gentle submission to despair.

The wrestling matches are her favourite part of the festival. This has to do with the circumstances of her marriage to Okonkwo. She fell in love with Okonkwo during the opening match of the book, when he threw the Cat. She always fancied Okonkwo but he was too poor to pay the bride price. After the match she ran away from her husband and eloped with Okonkwo. No Okonkwo doesn't turn out to be prince charming but Ekwefi likes that memory.

She was the priestess of Agbala, the Oracle of the Hills and the Caves. She was a widow with two kids in ordinary life
