Patron Study Questions:
Avi: In this chapter Wentworth offers Anne his umbrella. Do you think this is something he would have done earlier in the book? What does that signify about Wentworth and his own journey?
Ghenet: What do you think Anne and Wentworth’s conversation (about Lyme, about Benwick and Louisa etc) tells us about what he’s feeling (not just what Anne thinks he’s feeling - is she a reliable narrator in this moment?)
Becca's Study Questions: Topics discussed include what would change is Wentworth professed his love to Anne, Sir Walter's opinion of Wentworth, how Elliot has heard of Anne before and whether he knew she was coming to Bath, and whose team we're on.
Funniest Quote: “Yes, yes, I see you are. I see you know nothing of the matter. You have only knowledge enough of the language to translate at sight these inverted, transposed, curtailed Italian lines, into clear, comprehensible, elegant English. You need not say anything more of your ignorance. Here is complete proof.”
Questions Moving Forward: Why did Elliot come to Bath? If Wentworth proposed to Anne now, would she accept?
Who wins the chapters? Mr. Elliot
