Julia QuinnA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more.
During the Pall Mall game at Aubrey Hall, Daphne and Simon make observations about men and women, respectively, and how to better understand the other gender to have a happy marriage. How much of their advice, if any at all, could be applied to how we understand Kate and Anthony’s relationship? Using Simon and Daphne’s words as your guide, identify at least two passages in the novel and examine how Kate and Anthony either align with or act in opposition to the Duke and Duchess’s claims.
In a well-crafted essay, explore how Kate’s interactions with Edwina, as well as Anthony’s interactions with his siblings (Colin, Benedict, Daphne, etc.) offer insights into their respective family dynamics and how they understand their role as an older brother or sister. Be specific and avoid plot summary.
At several points throughout the novel, Anthony compares women to dogs, saying that he can effectively order and control both “species.” Choose one such scene and examine it in contrast to a later scene where Anthony’s attitude on how to relate to women has changed.
