"Many Waters" Trivia Quiz

I absolutely love this book- in fact I did a report on it for my sociology class. It was written by Madeleine L'Engel and I think she's wonderful.

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who are the main characters in this Murray related novel?

Answer: Sandy and Dennys

I love the twins more then any one else in the Murray family- they're just so regular.

2. What game are they playing when it gets too snowy to stay outside?

Answer: hockey

They're playing with a bunch of friends and it gets to the point they can't see anyone so they have to stop.

3. What food/drink item are the twins looking for when they go into their parents' lab?

Answer: cocoa

They're making sandwiches but they have to look for the cocoa because they didn't see it by the door. (boys- you'd think they could open their eyes!)

4. What sort of place do they have in mind when they type "sand" and "sparsely populated" into the computer with Greek symbols on the keyboard?

Answer: Fiji

They want Fiji or Baki but they get something very different.

5. Who is the first person they meet?

Answer: Japheth

It's lucky they meet him first. Most of the other villagers are evil.

6. How do they (the twins and the people of the oasis) understand each other?

Answer: they use their under-hearing

Yes... I have no idea what that means, but whatever works for them. They're dropped off in the middle of the Noah and the Flood story. They see mammoths (that are tiny), manticores, and unicorns. Ah, what a time they live in.

7. What girl do the twins fall in love with?

Answer: Yalith

Oholi's pretty but married to Japheth. Anah's an older tamer version of Tiglah but only because she's married (I think).

8. Who does Yalith love?

Answer: Sandy and Dennys

That Nephil dude kind of creeps me out, anyone else? Is stalking normal for those things?

9. Which type of "angel" is the good kind (in the story, not in general). Seraphim or Nephilim?

Answer: Seraphim

The Seraphim are much cooler animals anyway. Who would you prefer to love, a lion or a mosquito?

10. Do Sandy and Dennys get back home?

Answer: Yes

The Seraphim drop them off on their way to the sun. Before that, the "take" Yalith so that she doesn't drown in the flood.
