I just can't get past his brutality. He mercilessly beats his wives and children several times, but he never really gets in any trouble for it. I don't think that characters should have no flaws, but Okonkwo was, in my opinion, too flawed, if that makes sense.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09851593526482443275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953690364532718935.post-87476486480238363072014-03-01T17:38:08.760-06:002014-03-01T17:38:08.760-06:00I completely agree.

He wasn't perfect (like a John Green character), but he also wasn't too outside of the box (like Oscar or Underground Man).Brooke M.
