Based on what your group came up with yesterday, respond to the following question: is Okonkwo a tragic hero? Why/why not? Make sure you can explain your answer!

Answer:

I think Okonkwo is a tragic hero. But his life of great power has already started to go down the drain. He started with money, bravery, and a fatal flaw, just like a tragic hero. Ever since he broke the weak of peace and accidentally killed the boy he has started to lose power and money. Eventually he will have nothing. He has started to suffer more in the book so as the story goes on i think it will end with him getting killed or dying by his own hand.
