We’ve reаd mаny wоrks this first hаlf оf the semester that discuss individuals feeling like оutsiders in their community or in certain spaces. Pick one essay from our readings explain how a certain author feels they belong elsewhere or are restless in their environment. What contributes to them feeling like an outsider? Do they have a yearning to escape? Do they cope with their frustration or accept it as a fact of their life? How does this feeling of being ostracized impact their identity? Rather than simply answering each question in order, construct an essay where you discuss these ideas and incorporate the significance of the text. Specify the author and the title of the work and provide a thoughtful analysis to its theme and representation. Provide as much textual support as possible (it clearly doesn’t need to be verbatim) and make sure you adhere to an essay format. This is a formal essay and you are writing for an academic environment, so refrain from using any informal language. Word Count: 500-600 words Aim for an introduction and 2-3 body paragraphs. You can have a concluding sentence or two, but it doesn’t need to be a whole paragraph.
