Chevalier+Websites

==[|http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/theatre/3561128/Tracy-Chevalier-on-letting-go-of-Girl-with-a-Pearl-Earring.html|]== ==This website is interesting as although it outlines the proces of Chevalier's novel being made into a film she comments about how the character's (mainly Griet) were interpreted and played by the actors. Griets sexual nature is more apparent than her artistic tendencies in the film etc. It also speaks about the contextual research done by Chevalier and art historians while making the novel and film, what prompted Chevalier to write the novel and why this is appealing for a film. Overall it isn't overly informative but is interesting for a background of the novel.==

[] This website provides users with: a brief summary of the novel, information on Chevalier, information on Vermeer and the some of the art styles in the 17th century, critic's reviews of the novel and 7 discussion questions on Girl with a Pearl earring. I found it quite interesting and the questions seem to be good for practice exam answers on the novel.
