Return to Shaker Heights with an independent reader’s guide filled with character insights, key ideas, relationships, themes and practical lessons inspired by Celeste Ng’s bestselling novel.
In the carefully planned community of Shaker Heights, everything seems to have its proper place. Then artist Mia Warren and her teenage daughter, Pearl, arrive and become closely connected to the Richardson family. As Pearl is drawn into their comfortable world and Izzy Richardson forms an unexpected connection with Mia, questions about family, motherhood, privilege, identity and belonging begin to challenge the picture of a perfectly ordered life.
This PageCraft publication spends time with the characters and ideas that make Celeste Ng’s Little Fires Everywhere such a thought-provoking read. We look at Mia and Pearl Warren, Elena and Izzy Richardson, the relationships between the two families, the emotional questions surrounding motherhood, and the ways money, secrets, judgment, freedom and social expectations influence the choices people make.
It’s a detailed and enjoyable read for anyone who has already finished Little Fires Everywhere and wants to spend more time with its characters and themes, or for readers who want a clearer feel for Shaker Heights, its families and the questions at the heart of the novel.
