Write an essay for ONE of the following topics:

Essay Topic 1

Denouement is the way that a story winds down at the end. While the climax is the turning point, after the climax, the reader wants to know what happens to the characters in the aftermath of the climax. Describe the denouement for Claire & Cam, for the movie "Dial L for Loser," and for the Pretty Committee as a group.

Essay Topic 2

In a work of literature, characters can be said to be either dynamic, or they can be static or flat. "Static" or "flat" characters tend to be one-sided, and they do not change during the novel.

"Dynamic" characters are more fleshed-out, and they usually grow or change in some way throughout the novel. Often, a main character is dynamic, while minor characters tend to be more static or flat.

1. Give 2 examples of dynamic characters from the book. For each, write a paragraph explaining how you know that this character is dynamic.

2. Who are some characters who are flat or static? For each one that you list, mention their primary defining characteristic.

Essay Topic 3

Most of the characters in the book are female, but many of their actions are motivated by interest in the male characters. List 3 male characters, and write a paragraph describing their role in the story. How do these males drive much of the action?
