Choose one of the following prompts. Write a detailed, focused , engaged critical/analytical essay. Be very specific. Support your assertions textually. Narrow your focus to small sections or a chapter. Describe, explain, detail and connect your ideas for your reader. Show your reader these ideas in action through textual example.    Hersey stated that he had decided “to write about what happened not to buildings but to human beings”. Hiroshima is a kind of seminal book in what is now often referred to as long form narrative non-fiction. What are the elements that have been borrowed from fiction? What is the impact on the reader with this vs. a more traditional non-fiction approach? How  does Hersey arrange his chapters to create the narrative drive. Choose one chapter. Think about how that particular chapter functions in the book as a whole. How does it build on what came before it?  how does it anticipate what comes after? Does it build connections between characters? Does it contribute to the reader’s understanding of characters? What is revealed? What is withheld?  Anatomy of a scene. Choose a place/scene/situation in the book that particularly strikes you. Deconstruct it. How does Hersey create it? Look at language and syntax, imagery,metaphor, simile, arrangement, punctuation. What makes this piece work? With journalism, Hersey once said, the reader is always conscious of “the person who’s writing it and explaining to you what’s taken place.” He said he wanted to have “the reader directly confronted by the characters,” so he tried to write the piece in such a way that, as he put it, “my mediation would, ideally, disappear.” Do you find this to be true? If so, how does he accomplish this disappearing act? Where do you see the writer? In other words,where do you see the invisible hand that controls the narrative?

I want you to explain and explore your definitions of and relationship to literature. What you believe we should read and why? Why is it even necessary to have a class like this? Why should we care? Your first paper accomplishes two things: for you, it is a chance to articulate what you believe, to come to your own opinion, and for me, it is a chance to get to know you as a writer, to examine your tone, your organizational decisions, your rhetorical style. So… We’ve read what Griffith and Nguyen have to say; now write a solid three page (750 word) essay sharing your ideas, telling us (your peers and me) what you think and why, using examples from your own experience to support your claims as well as a quote from the book and/or the essay. You can be as creative as you want in the presentation of your ideas but what I’ll be looking for is: a clear understanding of what we’ve read (regardless if you disagree) and then your critical response to those texts using something from your own experience as evidence. Please use the following sources: https://vietnguyen.info/2018/canon-fodder writing essays about literature a guide and style sheet 8th edition kelly griffith **only quote from chapters 1 and 2!**
