DISCUSSION PROMPTS
for Chapter 16:
· Discuss Ma's "revolt"
in this chapter. For what does she fight?
How does her revolution further expand the
previous revolutionary references in the
novel?
· How does the one-eyed man epitomize the
isolated "I" perspective, versus
the novel's dominant "We" message?
· How does the microcosm of the campground
owner parallel the macrocosm of ownership
elsewhere in the novel?
