Pierce College Pleasure of My Company Comparison to Catcher in the Rye Essay

I’m working on a english report and need a sample draft to help me understand better.

This MUST BE WRITTEN IN POINT BY POINT METHOD (Listen to the lecture and ask questions if you are unclear about how to write using this method)

Choose a book or short stories that you’ve read recently. If you haven’t read a book recently there are several places to discover short stories (or novels if you’re extremely intrepid) that would serve this assignment very well. Links are below:

http://www.readprint.com/books-9/Short-Stories (Links to an external site.)

You will then compare OR contrast this work to the novel by Steve Martin that you read in class, The Pleasure of My Company.

Remember, do not exceed the assignment! Either compare, OR contrast your chosen work to Martin’s. Some possibilities for how to break down the readings into something that you could compare or contrast in your essay are below:

Good Bad

You might think this is obvious, but I’ve actually had papers that were turned in with some very strange comparisons and contrasts.

IMPORTANT – This paper should be 3-5 pages, double-spaced in 12 point font, 3 FULL PAGES minimum. Each body paragraph should have at least two supports from each story to identify a distinct area of comparison or contrast between the two works of fiction. You should use proper MLA citation.
