Who has read 'The Secret Life of Bees'? HELP?

I am writing an essay on The Secret Life of Bees, which I just skimmed through. (It obviously didn’t catch my attention.) I kick myself for not reading it, but I would like to know if someone could help me… The question for the essay is:

‘Carefully consider the experience of the main character, protagonist, from your novel. Discuss his or her coming of age experience: what built up to his/her experience; how did he/she change; what did he/she learn; and are these learnings of universal value to the readers who read this book?’

Much help appreciated!

Answer #1

Try this site to help you. I have not read it myself, but I tend to use Sparknotes to help me with essays, and they cover ‘The Secret Life of Bees’ on their site, so here is the link:

I hope it is of at least some use

Sorry to say, but you may want to just watch the movie.
