After killing the messenger Okonkwo knew what he had failed his people. He realized he failed his god Ani and comes to a conclusion. He kills himself thinking he couldn't do anything else.
Resolution/ My ConclusionOkonkwo's Body is foundThe ending of the story really shocked me but I think it was cowardly for Okonkwo to kill himself because he couldn't adapt to change.
He was my friend
I think I might write about this in my book, It deserves a paragraph.
