The Flower Sisters

As suggested by the name, the Flowers women serve as the main focus of the novel. Who would you name as the antagonist, and why? Do any of the characters change their roles over the course of the book?

The Flowers Sisters switches between characters but is told exclusively in first person, except for in the prologue. What effect does this stylistic choice have on the narrative?

The dance hall explosion in the book takes place in 1928, just like the actual incident of the Bond Dance Hall Explosion. How do the social beliefs and attitudes of the era influence the Possum Flats community’s reaction to the tragedy?
