2.8.1 chapter discussion (spoilers up to 2.8.1)

Discussion prompts

1. A new book and a return to the ‘main narrative’? How do you feel about the recent diversion?

2. Fauchelevent is very knowledgeable about the death rituals. How many nuns could possibly have died?

3. Thoughts on the language in this chapter? (I had to look up several words!)

4. Well done everyone who called it that Cosette would be staying here.

Last line.

The prioress sat on the only chair in the parlour, waiting for Fauchelevent.
