A2 LITERATURE: NORMAN'S CLASS

Remember that your deadline for the first draft is next Thursday (17th March) - please bring your essay to the lesson and we will collect them in.

In the meantime, bearing in mind that you need to acknowledge and use critical viewpoints within your essay (A03), here are some links that might help:

Review of The Go Between - plus quotes from other reviews
Review of movie version of TGB - New York Times
Book review of TGB - New York Books
Blog entry on TGB
Interview with Betjeman
Audio clips - Betjeman
Material on Betjeman from The Guardian
Betjeman gets a mention in The Office
Death of a Salesman - some ideas
Review of Death of a Salesman

There are some notes on DOS & TGB coming your way too.The hardest part of writing this essay is structuring it; remember that your comparison needs to be pretty sustained. It's probably a good idea to 'block' the essay into 4 or 5 sections, making sure that each section includes some links between the 3 texts - and make sure that your opening and ending are fully comparative.
