Write an argument about Andrea Levys Every Light in the House Burnin, and you will put your argument in conversation with ideas from a scholarly secondary source.
develop an argument about how the novels message can be understood in relation to distinct ideas from the secondary source. Try to focus your thesis on one of these topics:
How the novel shares new perspectives about the black British experience
How the novel re-writes the concept of British identity for people living in the diaspora
How Levys story helps make literary culture more inclusive
Next, decide on the scholarly secondary source youll use: this can be Michael Perfects article Existing in More than One Plane of Time: Memory and Narrative Form in Every Light in the House Burnin (our reading for February 17), or another source you find through your own research.
