I am trying to think of a variety of questions I could ask the protagonist(character) in the short novel "The Last Day of a Condemned Man". Any...

There are many different questions one could pose to the
protagonist in Victor Hugo's "The Last Days of a Condemned
Man."


Here are a few you can
consider.


1. How did you obtain your
wealth?


2. What did you dream about when you were in
Bicetre Prison?


3. Why do you think so many people showed
up to your trial?


4. Why did you find the witnesses "stupid
looking?"


5. Why did you compare the spectators in your
trial to ravens?


6. How did you feel when your heard
laughter coming from the Market for Flowers?


7. What do you
think of the little girl who seemed excited about witnessing your
death?


8. Given that you recalled that all men are
condemned to death, why did your fate bother you so
much?


9. Were you satisfied with your death by guillotine,
or would you rather die by another means?


10. Why do you
think that the jailers began to look at you as if you were an
animal?


11. Why do you think that the sentry, in charge of
watching over you, could not take his eyes off of
you?


12.What could you have done to increase your stay in
the infirmary?


13. How did it feel to see the scaffold upon
which you were to die?


14. Why do you think the priest
named you an "Unbeliever?"


15. Why did you send your child,
Mary, away from you?


16. Were you
pardoned?
