Why does Nwoye convert to Christianity - JSS2 English language Week 6 Question
Why does Nwoye convert to Christianity?
Nwoye converts to Christianity largely to reject the excessive standard of masculinity his father wants him to uphold. Nwoye is different from his father, and Okonkwo constantly punishes him for it. Stifled by his father’s expectations, Nwoye runs away and joins the European church. His conversion also provides him an opportunity to learn reading and writing, which feeds his love of storytelling.
