Most books of fiction, through character, theme, plot, and style evoke a question.  We discussed, at length, questions raised by the novel Frankenstein.  Does a creator have a moral responsibility to his/her creation?  If so, why?  For the book you read, please consider a question that was raised.  The purpose of the essay is to raise the question in your introduction (don’t forget title and author) and then explore the answer to the question in the body of your essay.  Use the text as your guide to explore an answer to the question.  Where does the text lead you in your search for an answer?    Please use specific quotes, if you can.

Feel free to use as many notes as you would like.  The time you have for this essay will only be about 50 minutes.

Students who do not complete the essay in class this week are asked to get it to me by make-up day.  Thanks!
