Leslie M., Saint Jacob, IL I definitely have a question. When our book club discussed this book, we all had different views on what happened to Little Bee in the end. There was much discussion over the ending. Does Little Bee die? Does she take her own life? Or, did “the men” take it? Or, as one reader felt, does Sarah have enough sway to save Little Bee in the end? There were some strong opinions. I didn’t realize how ambiguous the outcome actually was until we spoke about it and I reread the last two pages. So, Chris Cleave, please give us some insight into just what did happen to our Little Bee. Thank you for discussing the novel in your book club, Leslie. I feel very honored that you would take the time to think about my story so carefully. In answer to your question about the ending, I’m afraid I can’t say whether Little Bee lives or dies. That’s not me being stubborn-it’s just because I honestly don’t know. I think both outcomes are equally plausible. I wanted to leave the story open-ended.
