Teacher: OK, class, you have each chosen a novel from my list and I expect most of you to have finished them. Your outlines are due next week. I want a summary, the predominant "theme"...what was the writer trying to say? I want an analysis of the story development. Seperate the main plot from the subplots. List the outstanding characters and establish their relevance to the story. What "elements" were used? Where was the "tension"? Where was the "turning point"? And - what was the ultimate "resolution"?!! April: Man, she sure knows how to ruin a good book.
