|b This study examines Chinua Achebe's protagonist Okonkwo in the postcolonial novel Things Fall Apart. Close reading focuses on Okonkwo as both a product and symbol of Igbo culture in Nigeria. The study analyzes Okonkwo in three roles – as a patriarch, father, and unwavering hero – finding he represents core Igbo values like masculinity, gender norms, and resisting change. His inability to adapt to colonial influences reflects the larger clashes in Igbo society during this period. Ultimately, Okonkwo's inflexibility and suicide metaphorically depict the 'falling apart' of Igbo cultural identity under colonialism. Okonkwo remains representative of his culture, and his fate parallels the demise of Igbo traditions. Thus, Achebe skillfully utilizes Okonkwo to provide insight into the cultural upheaval and human impact of colonialism on indigenous Nigerian communities. This analysis affirms Achebe’s effective use of Okonkwo as a symbol encapsulating major societal transformations in Things Fall Apart.
