Description: Kindly go through sparknotes and read about the plot, the characters and events. Try to highlight adjectives and adverbs that would help you better understand the characters and events.
Description: To have a better understanding of the characters, time and place we sometimes need to "see" rather than visualize how they look, what they wear and hot they sound. Movie adaptations based on novel can be very helpful and enjoyable. Watch the attached clip (and the rest of the clips 1/12) to compare what you have imagined and visualized with what others have had filmed. Make notes as you watch!
