4. Symbolism: the essay you will be writing for this novel will deal with Golding's use of symbols to communicate meaning. It is important that you realize that, as humans, we are seekers of meaning; as writers, we are creators of meaning. It is your job, as a seeker, to figure out what Golding, as a creator, is trying to tell you. Think of a novel (or any piece of writing) as the liaison for a conversation between you and the author. What is he trying to tell you? Ask questions. Make observations. Give your opinion. TALK BACK to him.
5. Note-taking: The way to be successful in reading and writing about what you've read is to take good, consistent notes.
