All of these elements should be easily found in your analysis.

Who is the author and what is his/her general background? Why might they have written

this book?

An explanation of the author’s thesis: What is the focus of this book? What was he trying

to say?

What struck you or stood out in this book and why? Be as reflective and thoughtful as

you can. This is the soul of the paper.

carefully explain why.

Your grade on this assignment will, more than anything else, be based on the depth with which

you read the book and the sincerity with which you reflect upon it.
