One of the book's main themes is the role of fate vs. chance. Do you believe in fate or is chance more a factor in tragedies such as those portrayed in the novel?

For me, the idea that it was fate, implies that there was a higher power making decisions, making choices, of who would survive and who would perish. I believe that it was a marriage of decisions made and chance. Some of the characters made choices that led to their demise or survival, while others may have been simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.
