Write a thesis on the novel Hench by Natalie Zina Walschots

 

The essay should reflect your analysis of the book from a particular theoretical point of view (i.e., reader response, archetypal, feminist, Marxist, psychoanalytic, or postcolonial). You will need to develop a thesis statement that identifies something significant and interesting about your text that your analysis revealed.

 

Examples provided below

From a feminist
perspective, The
Handmaid's Tale may
seem to be about a
future dystopia, but its
world bears striking
similarities to our own,
especially in the
silencing of women's
voices, the curtailment
of their rights, and the
disturbing focus on their
reproductive freedom.

Let's try that again
Let's say I read Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale. In this case, I'm
probably going to be interested in a feminist analysis. I might have noticed
that this novel seems to be about a future dystopia, but at the same time, many
aspects of that future are very familiar.

Again, notice that parallel structure:
