Assignment:

I reflected a bit on what the novel is prompting us to think about the nature of belief. What is belief? How do we determine "true" belief from "false" belief? What about the characters in the novel: what do they believe in, or don't believe in? How can we determine what those beliefs are (or aren't), or whether they are sincere or not? In your discussion board post, find one passage in the novel that suggests to you one of the dimensions of belief discussed here, and do a brief close reading to unpack the passage you have selected.
