Year of Wonders exam Prompt

What do you guys reckon it'll be this year? Last year it focused on fear and Anna's views of the world.
So perhaps it will focus on the Isolation in the Village, or something about Men being portrayed as Villains and Women being the Heroic figures.
There's a fair few themes in this novel.

Ideas?

I was just looking at that prompt! It's a good one, Coz you can mention the full circle in the novel and how Anna ends up naming her baby Aisha meaning "life"

Also do you guys think there will be a chance that a prompt relating to God/religion will pop up? If it does I'm so stuffed

You'd think so. God vs Nature is a pretty dominant theme. It might be one of the two.

And in reply to your above question. I think It will be harder than last years.  Especially because last year it talked more about a common feeling "fear" and a subjective change of perception from Anna.  This year it might go for a more general " How have the Villagers blah blah blah"... And talk about how each person has dealt with their faith or something.

With those prompts I always end up talking about the plot a little too much, explaining everyone's individual situation -_-

Nature would be better. But seriously, I have like no quotes about God or anything like that so my fingers are crossed. LOL

Faith would be a good one though I don't mind that..
