Far from the Madding Crowd

Hey guys! Hope you had a great time reading this book as well as I did. I want to know your opinion of the characters of this story. Choose and discuss one or all of the following questions:

1. Should Batsheba have agreed to marry Gabriel at the beginning of the story? Would their marriage have been successful then? If not, why not?

2. Why would Batsheba never have been happy with Troy, even if he had lived?

3. Was Batsheba right to go on refusing Boldwood's proposals? Could they ever have been happy together? Why, or why not?

4. Which qualities do you think are the most important when choosing a husband or wife?

Gabriel Oak, Batsheba Everdene, Frank Troy, Mr Bolwood.

The Script - Hall of Fame

What a nice term! We spent a long time talking about dreams, goals, achievements... very interesting topic! I hope you had a good time as I did. Talking about dreams, I wanted to share this music video with you. The lyrics have a very good message, and I think the video is very expressive, too. Enjoy it and take it into your lives. JMC.
