entry 6

"Okonkwo did not have the start in life which many young men usually had. He did not inherit a barn from his father." pg.16

This shows you how strong a will Okonkwo has. He built up a great life from nothing. He had the strength to endure through the shame his father left him with and through all the bad seasons. I think it is really admirable what he did because most people would have given in under the pressure he had to deal with just to live a life free of his father's shadow. I still do not think it is right for him to have multiple wives though.
