*MEDAL WILL BE REWARDED FOR BEST ANSWER* ---> These are a few questions I don't know the answer to from the short story "The Chrysanthemums" by John Steinbeck. 1. What two ways does Elisa try to explain her talent for growing chrysanthemums? How do these descriptions contrast with what the reader has seen of Elisa's character before this point? 2. Why do you believe Elisa eventually chooses to keep up the appearance of her simple self to her husband and community? 3. Steinbeck's work often uses simple characters and writing style to present complex ideas about society. What message about society do you believe Steinbeck was sending in this story? Support your answer with evidence from the text.
