Discussion
questions:
1.
Do you think that (many of) the
characters are stereotypes, or do
they posses enough characteristics
to be "round characters"?
Which
characters are the most convincing
and which the least?
2.
The narrative is mainly from Francie.
Do you think the story also could
have been told from Neely? Why yes
or no. What changes would that have
brought to the story told?
3.
Do you think the title "A tree
grows in Brooklyn" is well
chosen? Why (not)? If you had to
rename the book, what title would
you give it?
4.
Do you think Francie will keep in
contact with her family after she
gets her own life?
5.
Why do you think dismisses Francie's
teacher her essays about her life
and likes the ones where no reality
is written?
6.
We heard Francie pray several times.
Do you think families like Francie's
need religion to keep going?
Do
you want to discuss this book or
others? Join
the group.
