Oedipus, up to the .....

Unoka was a peace loving man, who hated the sight of blood. Unoka never stood for any unnecessary killing, and was reputed for being "weak with his machete" (18). He would rather wield away his time playing on the flute than watch a battle or wrestling match. Because of this, Okonkwo love .....

Amazingly in the midst of this historical event the story is filled with love and betrayal. This is a tragic situation, where there can be no winners. It does not have heroes, heroes do not exist in tragedies- rather it has real people with real feelings, who due to the nature of the system, and their beliefs brought about by years of conditioning must come face to face with brutal realities. The book painfully traces the genesis of th .....

.... and thus the seeds of his unanticipated success as a writer, appeared quite casually one day as he spun an impromptu tale to amuse the daughters of a colleague during a picnic. One of these girls was Alice Liddell, who insisted that he write the story down for her, and who served as the model for the heroine.
