Novel
Study: Tuck Everlasting Final Reading Responses
Some readers have not been
satisfied with the story’s ending. In
her quest for independence, Winnie chooses not to drink from the spring but to
live the way life was meant to be lived, with death as part of the wheel and
flow of things. She chooses a natural
death over living with Jesse in the unnatural state of eternal
life. What are your feelings and
thoughts about her final decision?
The Tucks and The Man in the
Yellow Suit are a contrast of selflessness versus greed. The Tucks have had to live a very lonely
life, never forming meaningful relationships with anyone to ensure no one else
suffers the curse of living forever. The
Man in the Yellow Suit is only concerned and obsessed about building his own
wealth. In fact he says the water should
be available “only to certain people, people who deserve it. And it will be very,
very expensive.” What are your feelings
and thoughts about being selfish versus being selfless in life? about showing
empathy/compassion versus apathy/indifference towards others?
