Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Angela Vicario's father had an ailment, what was it?

Answer: Could not see

Indeed, he went blind as a result of the gold dust that he made while he was working.

2. Whom did Bayardo San Roman buy his house from?

Answer: Xius the widower

And this would lead to the death of Xius. They said he died as a result of a broken heart.

3. Who is conducting the interview throughout the book?

Answer: Santiago's cousin

Ah, don't be confused with Angela's nephew, because he was not her nephew, but her cousin, as well and Santiago's.

4. How long after the death are the interviews conducted?

Answer: 27 years

If you missed this one then you must have done some 'light' reading.

5. Santiago says that there must have been enough flowers at the wedding for how many funerals?

Answer: 14

Yes, and it is quite unusual that he would use the imagery of a funeral, but in this novel, it makes sense.

6. What does Victoria Guzman always call Santiago?

Answer: White man

She says it several times, even once in the very beginning of the story.

7. Which one of these people were not present at the autopsy of Santiago Nasar?

Answer: Dr. Dionisio Iguaran

Yes, even though he was the doctor in the town he did not perform the autopsy because he had left before the Bishop came down the river.

8. Whom did Santiago Nasar lose his virginity to?

Answer: Maria Alejandria Cervantes

Although he possibly took Angela's virginity, and would have taken Divina's too, it was his father that took Victoria's. But the only one out of all those women who took Santiago's was Maria Alejandria Cervantes.

9. Who got married the night before Santiago was killed?

Answer: Bayardo San Roman and Angela Vicario

If you did not get this question, then you have not read this novel at all. Go back and read it because it is truly an excellent work of art.

10. Who eventually kills Santiago Nasar?

Answer: The Vicario Brothers

Again, if you did not find this one out, than you did not read the book at all. How do I know? Because they only mention that they will kill him to every person in the whole town, even Santiago. And as well, each time the say it in their story, it is written in the novel for you to see.
