[ORDER SOLUTION] Character Analysis

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAD READ DOCTOR SLEEP BY Stephen King  BEFORE YOU ANSWER THIS QUESTIONS For each of the following discussion questions, write a developed response that answers all questions presented, and includes evidence from the novel as support. If an alternative question is presented, you may choose that alternative. In other words, you are not required to answer both.  Questions are worth 20 points each and will be graded on your ability to write a developed response of at least one full paragraph (at least ten complete sentences) that includes ample evidence from the text as support.  Answers are based on opinion, but you must provide support for your opinion.      1.     Did you enjoy the novel? Why or why not? Be as honest as possible and give reasons to support your response.                        2.     Which character(s) did you like/dislike most? Why? Write a short character analysis that includes examples of why you like or dislike this character.   Alternative Question: Were there any characters that you liked at some points and disliked at other? What story changes or new contextual information made you change your mind?                3.     What made you want to keep reading this book? Put a different way: What kept you interested and engaged with the story?    Alternative Question: If you did not feel particularly engaged, explain why. Propose changes to the book that would have made it more engaging for you.                                    4.     Choose one sentence from the story that you particularly liked and discuss ONLY that sentence. (What about the sentence is so great? Does the author play with language in this sentence? How does it relate to the larger themes of the story?)  Alternative: If choosing a single sentence seems too limited, you can expand your answer to a favorite paragraph or a favorite page. The goal is to focus on a small chunk of the text and really analyze that section.              5.     Discuss how the context for a given piece of writing might have affected the writing itself. Any creative work is ultimately influenced by the historical and cultural context of the time in which it is written. This is certainly true of The Shining and it is also true of Doctor Sleep.  Describe how those historical/personal events affect your interpretation of the story.    Alternative: Do you think King intended the story to carry any specific message for readers of this time? If so, what message? Develop your response and include examples as support.
