ESSAY – The Serious Nature of the Novel

Topic: No text exists in isolation. Every text you will read, from academic journals to comic books, has a purpose that is informed by an audience and one that also responds to the outside world.

Yet other texts use subtlety in conveying their message or warning to readers. A warning from a text might be a depiction of a worst-case scenario and its messy, traumatic, or sad impacts on the characters. Yet as readers, there is always a message we can find and carry with us in our lives.
