Writing an exam response

Advantages

  • Consider narrative style and structure such as the ways in which the narrative structure fragments when Amir is confronted by the attack on Hassan.
  • Explore use of language the change from lyrical sentences to simple prosaic ones.
  • Think about the importance of setting and show it is portrayed as part of the story
  • Focus on form of chapters

Disadvantages

  • Do not just retell the story
  • Do not just write about who the characters are and what they do
  • Do not state what the themes are unless linked to the writers methods
  • Do not microanalyse-write extensively on just one single word or a particular type of punctuation. This may look impressive but you need o be sensible about the impact of these features overall.
