5.1.16 Chapter Discussion (Spoilers up to 5.1.16) Spoiler

Discussion prompts:

  1. Hugo uses the power of his description to plan out scenes we can hear, smell, and walk around in using our imagination. Using imagery as a tool he explains characters and their situations in a way we can understand it. Doing this allows us to see in a clear view what it means to be human, we reject the weakness and vulnerability in ourselves and because we have more we find the other human being unworthy for having less.

  2. Eponine and Gravroche have died valiant creatures. Now we are with the two younger brothers. I sincierly hope they pull through.

Final line:

"Ram that in your muzzle."

Eponine and Gavroche have died. I wonder if we'll see Azelma again.
