Chapter Thirteen

Well, the calamity we were all waiting for has finally hapened. The oldest man in the village died and okonkwo accidentally shot his son at the funeral. The old man's son that is, not okonkwos. This was rather odd. I wonder if he did it on purpose. the book was rather vague, it introduced all of these strange spirit men, told the funeral and then had okonkwo banished from the village. I think everyone was in shock. Okonkwo packed up that night and left for what the book called the motherland. Man, that is tough. packing up and leaving home in one night is not fun, especially if you dont want to go. I really feel bad for okonkwo if the shooting was accidental.
