Remember to write strongly focused topic sentences, and in each paragraph discuss the writer’s choices and the extent to which you appreciate those choices. If you discuss Kafka’s choices throughout your essay (perhaps 2-5 times each body paragraph) you will likely improve your evaluation of “The Metamorphosis” as a work of art.

Thank you for all of your hard work.

Kind Regards,

Mr. Coey

p.s. Spring Break is almost here!
