The Bridge of San Luis Rey by Thornton Wilder: A Study Guide

Tragedy and the randomness of death combine to make Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer prize winning novel one of the truly great texts. The study guide gives an introduction and overview, including character synopses. In-depth questions on each chapter together with a helpful commentary to guide the reader to a deeper understanding of the plot, background, themes, and characters. The questions are primarily designed to stimulate group discussion, but can also be used for self-study. Suggested answers are given. Multiple-choice reading quizzes on each Part come with answers. A graphic organizer for the plot is also provided. This first offering of a print version of the study guide is a revised and expanded edition of Ray's ebook "The Bridge of San Luis Rey: A Study Guide".
