Events in a plot elicit a variety of reactions from characters. With reference to the works of at least two writers you have studied, compare how they have highlighted and made important to the works as a whole, reactions by different characters to certain events.

Discuss the ways in which at least two of the works you have studied are concerned with the exploration of aspects of *corruption and/or decay. (*among a plethora of other concepts like power, repression, individualism, paranoia, consciousness etc.)

“Fiction is an essentially rhetorical art—that is to say the novelist or short-story writer persuades us
to share a certain view of the world for the duration of the reading experience.” To what extent do you agree with this statement in regards to two or three novels you have studied? (Orwell's visceral revulsion of Totalitarian politics)

Authors are aware of the power of their works to shock the reader. Referring to at least two of the works in your study, explore some of the methods they have employed to do this.
