closely analyze the structure and/or figurative language of the short story.

Using the tools of fiction we studied this semester, analyze ONE of the texts we have studied so far in our course. First, (1) form a thesis argument about that text. (2) closely analyze the structure and/or figurative language of the short story. For example, you can choose some of the following: structure, type of narration and point of view, character, setting, symbolism and figurative language etc. Make sure your analysis supports and is strongly connected to your thesis argument. Then, (3) clearly connect your analysis to your thesis argument and show how your formal analysis serves as a way to demonstrate your thesis.
