You might frame your questions along the following lines:
What was the motivation for writing this specific narrative, and how did that motivation shape the story?
How can we understand the experience of encountering and learning another culture through this narrative?
What does the narrative reveal about cultural ideas about race, gender, religion, etc.?
Can we trust the narrative? If so, how do we know? If not, what does it reveal in spite of its particular flawed lens?
And so on.
