Long Answer
1. The wreath Emilia sends on the river is a tradition in which a candle is placed in the wreath, and the boy who catches the wreath downstream is who the sender will marry. Emilia’s wreath catches on fire, so she believes it symbolizes her death. (Pages 281-311)
2. The characters lie to survive war-torn Prussia. The people in the novel have characteristics they must hide from the Nazis and Russians who believe in the Master Race. There are also instances, such as Emilia’s pregnancy, Joana’s letter, and Florian’s theft, that the characters hide because they are unwilling to confront those problems, and those secrets could put them in danger. When the characters confess their secrets, it draws them together and sets them free to accept their circumstances and friendships. (Various Chapters)
