Main body:

BE SIMPLE!!!!!!

How do both writers explore X (X is hope, following the previous example)

Both writers use the central point of their narratives to explore the theme of X in the creature/clones, filling the reader with false optimism for these characters.

THAT is POINT 1

First author – point where Ishiguro explores X, where (in the narrative) and when (in the story/plot)

Acronym: EAT SM BSC

E - Evidence

A - Analysis

T – Terminology and techniques

S – Structure – why have they chosen to explore this moment in the novel

M – Motif – similarities and contrasts

B – Broader use

S - Setting

C – Context – evaluate the influence of the author’s choices

WHY have they chosen to do this, what is the effect/impact on reader

Now point where Shelley explores X, where (in the narrative) and when (in the story/plot)

Then POINT 2 and repeat then POINT 3 and repeat

In conclusion, the authors explore the importance of X through their respective narratives. It is through the critical evaluation of ‘Never let me go’ and ‘Frankenstein’ that we see point 1,2 and 3
