Dear Decathletes:
Hope you are keeping up on your reading.
Here are some essential questions from Book the Second that you need to review to make sure you understand what is going on.
1. There is somewhat of a love triangle going on in this novel. Who is involved in this triangle?
2. Why does Mr. Lorry have to go back to Paris?
3. Why does Charles Darnay have to go back to Paris?
4. What does Charles Darnay choose to renounce when he talks with his uncle the Marquis Evremonde?
5. What does Jerry Cruncher do for a living at night, besides working as a jack-of all trades for Mr Lorry?
6. Dr Manette still spends time making shoes at night, just like he did when he was imprisoned. What does this action represent?
7. What happens to Charles Darnay's uncle?
8. What is the significance of Mr. Stryver's name?
