Working in groups of three or four, create a googledoc,
include the word “Persimmon” in the title of the doc, and share it with my
gmail address. Discuss the following questions and have a different member of
the group record answers for each. Be sure to list all group members' names in
the doc.
- Why do you think Gaskell has Old Alice tell the story of leaving the country and coming to the city in such detail?
- What do you think of Mary so far? What about Margaret? Offer details from the text to characterize each of them.
- In chapter five, we hear about the autodidact Job Legh and his interest in science. What possible purpose might Gaskell have in sharing this information with us?
