Folder for The Red Badge Of Courage

Discussion questions:
1) Henry was desperate to join the army. Even though his mother didn't want him to go, he still went off and joined without telling her first. Why do you think he wanted to go so badly. Have you ever felt this strongly about something?

2) Henry comes across a dead soldier in his wanderings. What do you think the dead soldier symbolizes?

3) What is the major conflict in the story?

4) What do you think about Henry? Do you like/dislike him? Why?

5) What do you think of the soldiers' camp life?

6) Do you think Crane is endowing war with qualities of holiness or do you think the religious emblems provide an ironic commentary about the unholy aspects of war?

7) If you were able to play a character in this book as an adapted movie or play, who would you want to be cast as?

8) Overall, did you enjoy the story? If you didn't, please state your reasons why.

Sorry I was not able to read this book this month, especially with your great questions!
But when I do read it I definitely will circle back here.

Ahh, no worries! Itotally understand!
Okay! :)

I have the book... Just haven't started it yet. I might be a little late 😉

It's alright, Elisabeth. I think a lot of people are behind this month. 😉
