Hello everyone!
Please find below some questions about this months book club pick, The Miniaturist! There may be spoilers so please be aware of that. If you’re unable to come along please let me know asap as it helps with organising the baking.
• The Brandt household is full of secrets. Which made the biggest impression on you and why?
• Did your attitude to the characters remain consistent throughout the novel, or did your loyalties shift as you kept reading? Which character provoked the strongest reaction from you?
• If you were Nella and had to take up her role at the end of the book, what would you do next?
• "Words are water in this city. One drop of rumour could drown us." says Marin. Discuss the irony of this statement.
• The novel has an amazing sense of time and place. How does the author create such an immersive world for the reader?
• Could more have been done with the character of the miniaturist? Did Burton give enough of an explanation?
• How would the household have survived after the novel had ended?
