Essay titles

Year 12,
Thank you for your focused and active performance in today's lesson. Here are the essay titles we looked at - you need to have a go at one or two of these over the weekend please. Remember the planning strategy we looked at and the need to address AO3 and get some reference to context in your response, ie link your point to an aspect of the conditions in which the novel was produced or is received.

“Love is presented as flawed and temporary in this novel.” What is your response to this point of view?

How important are the locations of country and city in the novel?

To what extent is the use of real life characters and their work important in the novel?

What do you think is important about the role of literature in the novel?

What meanings can you find in the title of the novel?

“Unreliability is an ineradicable part of what we are.” How far is this supported by EL?

Some people say that Mrs Logan is a pointless distraction to the main themes of the novel. What do you think about the importance of Mrs Logan in the whole of Enduring Love?

What does McEwan have to say about man’s ability to be happy in the novel?

See you on Monday and enjoy your weekend,
Mr Boulter
