Well am suppose answer the question below in 2 P.G for each novel i read. Can someone please put the question in a simplier form in order for me to understand. Thank you!

State the central question that the work raises. Support your assertion that this IS a question raised by the novel through references to plot,character,setting,and other literary aspects. Be sure to use several passages from the work to support your assertion.

Answer 1

Quite an assignment!

Maybe you should ask the teacher who assigned it, but always good to get another opinion....try this...break it down into bite sized pieces.

State the central question that the work raises. (What's the novel about?)

Support your assertion that this IS a question raised by the novel through references to plot,character,setting,and other literary aspects.

(Yell me why you thinkit is about that by telling me who is who and what they do to each other...also proves you read it!)

Be sure to use several passages from the work to support your assertion. (Be sure to cite them properly...quotations have quote "" marks...)

Good luck!
