TFA Chapter 19
This chapter deals with Okonkwo's last harvest in Mbanta. It is a pretty short chapter so there isn't much to talk about. Basically he says he would have prospered more in his fatherland, which that is where he is returning. He sends money to Obierika to build him two huts and his old compound until he builds more. It explains that he has to wait for the dry season to come before he can return. Until then, he thanks his mothers kinsmen. They have a huge feast before he leaves. That's about it. I thought this chapter was pretty boring. I don't really know what to think about it. I still think Onkonkwo is a jerk.
