This book was okay, but a bit violent. I thought that Okonkwo’s world was very different compared to mines, so I explored his life - his 3 wife’s, 7 children, and his fatherland, Umuofia. There are a lot of words that’s hard to pronounce (I suppose African people have ridiculous names) but it was still great.
