What are the key themes in 'forbidden feast short stories'?

I'm not sure as I haven't read it specifically. But they could be people who are either directly involved in the 'forbidden feasts' or those who are affected by them, like the organizers, the guests, or the onlookers.

The key themes in the Book of Exodus include liberation. The Israelites were slaves in Egypt and God freed them. Another theme is the covenant. God made a covenant with the Israelites. Also, there is the idea of following God's laws which were given to Moses on Mount Sinai.

One common theme is social class differences. For example, a poor peasant falling in love with a wealthy aristocrat. Another theme is family disapproval, like in Romeo and Juliet where the two families hated each other. And cultural or religious differences can also be a theme, where different beliefs make the love between two people forbidden.

One common theme is family interference. In Mexican culture, family plays a very important role, and often family traditions, expectations, or hierarchies can stand in the way of a couple's love. For example, a family might have arranged marriages planned, and a love that goes against that is forbidden.

It might explore the theme of the allure of the forbidden. Barker often delves into the human psyche, and in this short story, it could be about what attracts people to things they are not supposed to do or know. There could also be a theme of moral decay, as when one engages with the forbidden, it often leads to a breakdown of one's moral compass.

Well, themes like celebration and community are likely. The Christmas feast implies a gathering, which could show how people come together to celebrate. Also, there might be themes of hope and renewal, as Christmas is seen as a time of new beginnings in many cultures. Additionally, the 'other stories' could explore themes like friendship, kindness, and the passage of time.

Perhaps it's about finding happiness in the little things, like the shared moments and conversations during a tiny feast.

Well, there are themes like exploration. The short stories often take us to new and uncharted parts of the Expanse. Also, the theme of human nature is there. We see how people react under extreme pressure, some showing great courage while others succumbing to greed or fear.
