Retelling "Dead Man's Path"

"Dead Man's Path" is a short story written by Chinua Achebe. This is a biography about Michael Obi and how his story is told. Michael lived in Nigeria and eventually became a headmaster at a small school where a path of loved ones who passed away and the unborn someone will eventually love enjoy walking through the after-life.The path was calm and beautiful leading to a graveyard. Michael is a very bold person and that being said he blocked off the path, which caused the villagers to get mad. Will he change his mind and unblock it or be too stuck up? Nothing is as it seems in "Dead Man's Path."
