My Problem / Achebe's Monster / Etc.

1. the characters of my problem are very limited, in fact, its pretty much only me. the setting of it is the present day in my own life. it doesnt concern anyone else or the world around me, its just based around me and my limitations.

2. Achebe's monster appears to be made up of a couple of things. firat of all there are parts of it that are the white man, who has come and upset his villages way of life through exploitation and religious conversion. another part of his mosters seems like it comes from his lazy and generally embaressing father, Achebe is trying to be the opposite of his deadbeat father, and this makes him somewhat too willing to actually do things that are asked / expected of him (ex: the killings).

2a. Rousseaus savage is similarly primitive, however Achebes was more educated and there also seemed to be a good ammount more violence. Similar, but not identical.
