Guide Sheet for Short Fiction Analysis Green/AAMU “Hold Tight” by Amy Bloom: How do we see Della and her father reacting to the mother/wife’s terminal cancer in the beginning? What changes (for her, or between them) by the end of the story? “Bully” by Louis C.K. (episode of FX show Louie): Focus on either A) the social theme about how bullies are created, or B) the character theme about the kind of person the character Louie is, by the way he responds to his humiliation. “The Lesson” by Toni Cade Bambara: How do we see Sylvia in the opening pages of the story? Focusing on her reactions at the ritzy toy store, what potential change do we see in her attitude toward the end? Paper: 11/2 to 2 pages, typed, double-spaced: Intro: Introduce the general idea the story deals with, then name the author and title of the story and state your thesis—how that general idea is expressed in this specific story. Body: Use select examples/quotes that show the character’s attitudes, thoughts, patterns of behavior. Then explain how these details demonstrate the thesis. (DO NOT summarize the whole plot.) Conclusion: What view about a life situation does the story portray? What might be in the central character’s future? About using SOURCES (IF you DON’T use a source, you get those 10 points free—so the risk in using a source is losing points if you don’t do so correctly): Always Document either an idea you gleaned from a source (say, about the seven stages of grief for “Hold Tight”) by identifying the writer or website you got it from, and quote any word-for-word sentences you use. EXAMPLE: A writer for the Hollywood Reporter says, “Louie is hard to classify other than that it exists and it’s immensely enjoyable most of the time and then shifts gears and becomes something you don’t expect right in front of you.” We see this in the episode called “Bully,” as a scene of humiliation is turned not into a desire for payback, but a call for reconciliation and caring. Put a Works Cited entry after your text. EXAMPLES: Source: Goodman, Tim. “Louie: TV Review.” Hollywood Reporter. 5/1/2014 Film: C.K, Louis. “Bully.” Louie. Season 1, Ep 8. FX. (Writer, last name first. Title. Show. Season/Episode. Channel.) For a story or poem, of course: Bloom, Amy. “Hold Tight.” (Writer–last name first. Title.)
