Roll No: 2 P. Neither he could stop them to expand their culture nor he could save his people from them and ultimately he found no other way but suicide. He did not want to accept and see his people converting to Christianity, thus he committed suicide. Thus, there is no ambiguity in the title as it mainly focuses on Igbo society which wasfell apart by the expansion of imperialism and Christianity but on the other side, the life of Okonkwo is also related to it.
He was a man of great strength, in the start, who by struggling, achieved respect and rank in his society but by a mistake, when he inadvertently kills a boy, he has to face exile from his society. The life of Okonkwo starts with prosperity and ends in poverty.
Not only the culture of Igbo society but the life of the protagonist is also relied upon the title of this novel. It is much shameful for a nation when he accepts other cultures with happy hearts, while forgetting his original one.
In this backdrop, we can easily justify the title that it totally gives us not only a hint but summarizes whole tale of the novel. At last but not the least the title is totally justified because it explains the story of a society whose values were shattered by colonialism, who could not save itself nor could it save its social values.
The conclusion of the novel is in its title. Chinua Achebe was very much right while picking this title as the story is totally related to it. Consequently, firstly, the morals, values and standard were shattered, secondly the life of Okonkwo protagonist of the novel was ruined and the people become helpless in front of colonialisms, therefore, the title is very much correct for this novel.
The standards and norms of that society were vanished and they become deserted, therefore, their culture as well as liveswere fell apart. Achebe offers a detailed portrait of precolonial Igbo customs, and he carefully avoids presenting an idealized picture of what village life was like before contact with Europeans.
Despite being fiction, Things Fall Apart insists on the rich reality of Igbo history, which European historical accounts tend to erase. Ace your assignments with our guide to Things Fall Apart!
