Additional Info
  1. For chapter seven, write a two page paper about what this chapter is really about. Use the details and information Conroy gives us to make an argument about what he's really saying (remember--it's okay to think off the grid as long as you can truly support it with evidence). Your essay should contain at least five pieces of text used properly for support. Essays should be double-spaced, 12 font, no headers--just dive right in...two full pages.

For chapter eight, both nature and human nature play a role. Write two pages about how Conroy writes about both to effectively show the obstacles he must overcome. Be sure to have a central argument that you can support. The same essay formatting rules from chapter six apply.
