The Death of Vivek Oji

The Death of Vivek Oji begins with the day when the market was fired and Vivek was dead to the story describing Vivek's life. The body of Vivek was found in the veranda with blood stains and his mother was trying to find out how he died and who kept his body in the veranda. Vivek wants to live a different life but he felt his parents won't accept it so he doesn't say anything to them and only happens in his life was his friends. Vivek's mother is an Indian and they have a community called Nigerwives which is for the women who married Nigerians and living there.

I loved reading it and I felt pity for Vivek. When I came to how he died and his cousins love for him I felt so sad.
People don't live the way they want because of society and their parents are not open-minded and don't have acceptance. Parents should be open-minded to treat their children as friends and try to know what's going through them and accept them. If Vivek can trust his parents he may have existed in the world and lived a happy life.
