1. Read The Worlds of Fiction Packet on Character and on Setting. Really get familar with these two sections.
The analysis continues: Please consider, think about, answer and be ready to discuss the following:
1. Why must there be a character in Things Fall Apart who FOILS Okonkwo?
2. Why must Obierika have a son who "has the right spirit?"
3. Why must OKonkwo wish his daughter Ezinma was a boy? Why do you think Achebe includes details about Enzinma's illness and Ekeki's courtship of Okonkwo?
4. Read Chapters 8-12. Pay attention to each of the stories told including the story about the Tortoise. What is the purpose of each of the stories?
5. Fina an element of irony; imagey; euphony (pleasing sounds); cacophony; metaphor all from Chapters 7-12 of Things Fall Apart. You only need one example of each.
