= Chapters 1 - 2 =

After reading the first two chapters of //Things Fall Apart// by Chinua Achebe, I thought it would be about the main character, which is Okonkwo, who will set forth on a journey to achieve something, like prove himself worthy of something or prove himself that he can be what other people doubted about him. I was thinking it would be a story like //By the Waters of Babylon//. But, of course, in the first two chapters it already stated that Okonkwo already has the third highest title in Umuofia and is quite famous for killing five men. I also predict that the boy who Umuofia took from another village will be enslaved by Okonkwo, for Okonkwo does not seem to have a heart in treating him that nicely, especially as his own son.
