A Dolls House | EXCERPT | Krogstad Vs Nora

 Read the excerpt below and then answer the questions that follow.                       

Krogstad:    Are you aware that is a dangerous confession?

Nora:            In what way?  You shall have your money soon.

Krogstad:      Let me ask you a question: Why did you not send the paper to your father?

Nora:            It was impossible: papa was so ill.  If I had asked him for his signature, I should 
                       have had to tell him what the money was to be used for:  and when he was so ill 
                       himself, I couldn’t tell him that my husband’s life was in danger – it was  
                       impossible.

Negative Cultural Practices in Blossoms of the Savannah

FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION.

Joseph Parmuat narrated to Resian and Taiyo how the practice was started by women to resist the evil Ilarinkoi, Taiyo and Resian are determined to fight it. Resian is very much against this retrogressive practice. She says, “I would rather live in the noisiest place on earth, than live anywhere near a vagabond who would accost me…with the intention of mutilating my sexuality”.  She later on manages to escape the brutal practice however her Sister Taiyo barely makes it having been forcibly cut. F.G.M is so highly regarded in Nasila that no girl would get married before getting circumcised. 

Blossoms of the Savannah | Self-interest

In Ole Kulet’s Novel, Blossoms of the Savannah, a character who only cares about themselves in the end doesn’t succeed. This is brought out clearly by characters such as Oloisudori ,Ole Kaelo and Olarinkoi.
