Outside Reading Progress Report

I have finished the book now and I have to say that I really liked it a lot. It included many interesting facts about the culture of African tribes and other things about their unique life. Last time, I stopped reading after Okonkwo killed Ikefema(sp?). The book got a whole lot better after that because I started to see what happens whenever the tribe's rules are broken. Whenever the men fire their guns at the funeral, it is completely accidental and unlucky that Okonkwo's gun explodes and kills the mans son. According to the tribe rule, Okonkwo must take his family into seven years of exile because of his actions. Then after his exile, the missionaries come to his old town. Whenever Okonkwo goes back, he tries to lead a rebellion by killing one of the head honchos from the missionary. But, nobody follows him and he has to resort to hanging himself to end his guilt or hate of himself.
I think that some good discussion questions would be "Why do you think Okonkwo felt that he had to hang himself?" Also, "What do the missionaries do for the story?" Lastly, "Do you think that Okonkwo turned out a failure like his father?"
