The occurrence within the story is a worst case scenario that ruins several lives. The buildup of this ambition has next to no payoff within the story at all, and it id through Okonkwo that the whole story itself falls from grace. His ambition should be a theme to leave an impact on us, but it is not until the latter half of the story that the reader finds out that this tale is no more than a clash of cultures that leads to several unnecessary deaths of unmemorable characters. The only driving force is what Okonkwo is going to do throughout the story, and his ambitions get the better of him in the worst possible way. The theme of pursuing a passion is eminent throughout and shows younger readers that dreams can be sought after, yet this story presents that dream as fleeting, dying, and unremarkable, which weakens the overall theme of ambition being a possibly positive theme. It shows an interesting side of a coin that is ill-explored, but the plot itself is sadly lacking in what the author actually wants to explain to
