Essay Topics

Write an essay for ONE of the following topics:

Essay Topic 1

Write an essay discussing magic realism and how it applies to Anatomy: A Love Story.

Essay Topic 2

The book is told from the third-person limited point of view. The reader sees Hazel's and Jack's perspectives on things. The reader only gets an idea of the other character's perspectives from their words or actions. The reader does not really get an idea of Bernard's or Lady Sinnett's, Dr. Strain's, or Dr. Beecham's inner monologues or their internal opinions or judgments about things. How does this affect the reader's judgments of those characters? Do you think the reader's judgements would change if the reader could see those other characters' internal perspectives?

Essay Topic 3

This book is essentially about Hazel. Is there another character that you'd like read a story about? What about that character would make you interested in reading a story that was mostly about them?
