Finals

Okay, so there is this thing that exists to torture students. This horror is known as finals. A significant portion (almost half) of my grade hinges on my doing well on the following:

Write a paper in which you agree or disagree with this summary of the thematic elements of A Room with a View:
"England must change or she will merely rot away like a medieval corpse."

Then, write your own one line summaries of Moll Flanders, The Mayor of Casterbridge, and Silas Marner. Explain your statements in an essay for each book, providing examples to support your reasoning.


Now if it were any other teacher this would be no problem, unfortunately Professor Heller (no, I did not make that name up) has the best bs detectors I've ever seen, so I have to make this REALLY good. Why, oh why did my brain choose now to take a vacation?
