You are going to write about this book on the website called “värt att läsa”. The other writers on the website questions if this book really is a classic. They invite you as a guest writer.
The framework for the work is:
– Write a text that is 600 – 800 words long where you argue for or against the book’s status as a classic.
You may dispose the text at your own discretion, however, the following point must be included somewhere in the text:
* Briefly about the book (plot, environment, people, theme, motifs, etc.) I suggest you do this in the introduction part of the text.
* Tell us about the era it was signed during. Also this in the beginning somewhere.
* Describe what is realistic/naturalistic in the novel.
* Select an episode or quote from the book that has made an impression, positive or negative. Of course, justify what impression the quote/ episode made.
* Introduce the author: Do not include too many dry facts, but try to find something different about the novel’s author. Remember source!
* Argue for or against the book’s status as classic. Is it worth its place in world litterature?
