Read the excerpt from "Civil Peace" by Chinua Achebe.

At first he went daily, then every other day and finally
once a week, to the offices of the Coal Corporation
where he used to be a miner, to find out what was
what. The only thing he did find out in the end was that
that little house of his was even a greater blessing than
he had thought. Some of his fellow ex-miners who had
nowhere to return at the end of the day's waiting just
slept outside the doors of the offices and cooked what
meal they could scrounge together in Bournvita tins. As
the weeks lengthened and still nobody could say what
was what Jonathan discontinued his weekly visits
altogether and faced his palm-wine bar. what affects does the setting have on Jonathan’s thoughts and feelings?
