For your Fiction Essay, you will compose a 5-page, literary analysis of one of the readings from The Norton Introduction to Literature, which is due at the beginning of class on Friday, May 1st.
Your essay should take a detailed insightful position on one of the fiction readings, and explain why it matters to you and why your reader should feel the same way. Since you have the benefit of revision, you should expect to produce a mechanically sound and stylistic paper, one that clearly presents a thoughtful and original position.

In addition to your primary reading, you must cite at least two secondary outside sources that in some way strengthen your essay. Your sources might provide additional evidence to support your thesis, illustrate a specific point you have presented, or address the viewpoint of another writer with whom you wish to agree or disagree.
