“The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell Plot: Hunting other humans (smartest, can fight back) Imagery: Depiction of the setting (the island, jungle/trap), hiding in the tree, the sounds, the dogs Characterization: General Zaroff hunts humans— he’s crazy, trophy room, fancy vocabulary, Ivan (the guard), Rainsford (protagonist) Conflict (external): Zaroff vs. the huntees, Zaroff vs. Rainsford Conflict (internal): Rainsford versus his idea of hunting (trying to stay calm and sane)

To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee Plot: Tom Robinson is accused of rape by a white woman (Mayellen Ewell), defended by Atticus Finch Boo Radley (neighbor who never comes out of his house, but saves the kids from Bob Ewell), Scout (narrator), Jem (brother), Dill (friend) Setting: Great Depression, Alabama Conflict (external): Atticus vs. the town, Tom vs. the town (racism) Conflict (internal conflict): Atticus vs. decision

Night, by Elie Wiesel Memoir about the Holocaust Symbolism: Night/darkness: a world full of horror, a world without a benevolent God Fire: the power of the Nazis Imagery: desperation/survival—ugly truth about humanity Theme: Don’t give up hope, even in the face of unspeakable horrors. Family means everything; even in the face of death, family can help you survive.

Animal Farm, George Orwell Allegory: seems to be about life on a farm, but is really about politics The animals represent significant political figures (Stalin [corrupt, exploitive leadership], Lenin/Marx [source of the ideals that Stalin corrupted], Trotsky [the idealist], Molotov [propaganda]) Theme: The working class must be aware of what their leaders tell them. Power can corrupt anyone. Society tends to divide itself into social classes.
