Topic:
Explore the relationship between Emily and Tobe. What do you think each character gets out of their relationship? Why does Tobe stay with Emily even though he must know what happened in the house? Why do you think he leave in the way he does? Explain what you think these two get from each other.
Your literary analysis should be between 2 and 3 pages (2 pages IS NOT 2 pages. If you do not reach a minimum of 2 pages, you did not develop the essay enough to give substantial evidence of your understanding of the material). This total does not include the Works Cited page. Remember these are Gordon Rule essays! You must write a minimum amount of words this semester to pass! The essay must be double spaced, in Times New Roman, and 12-point font and must include:
A clearly articulated thesis that states, somewhere in your introduction, the assertion (position, interpretation) that your paper will prove
An introduction, a minimum of three (3) body paragraphs, and a conclusion
At least two quotes from the story itself that are integrated into your discussion
Topic sentences that focus the discussion in the body paragraphs
Examples, details, explanations in the body paragraphs that clearly support your thesis
Clear connections between ideas from paragraph to paragraph and within paragraphs
Proper MLA style format in the heading, in the in-text citations, and in the Works Cited page
Works Cited page
Standard usage, grammar, and mechanics
The story is your ONLY source. In other words, NO OUTSIDE SOURCES will be allowed.
