[ORDER SOLUTION] comparative book review

Each student will write a 5-6 page critical, comparative book review that summarizes and evaluates the two “graphic novels” that we will read this semester: Che: A Revolutionary Life – A Graphic Biography by Jon Lee Anderson and José Hernández and Goodbye, My Havana by Anna Veltfort. Since neither book is actually a “novel” (in the fictional sense) and both are graphic biographies, autobiographies, or memoirs, you should pay particular attention to the choices the authors made (and the underlying argument or message) in telling the life story the way that they do. In terms of structure and content, the reviews should be critical and comparative. That is, they should include: a) a clear introduction that identifies 5 the title and author of the books being reviewed along with an indication of your own focus or argument; b) a short summary of the content of the two books, highlighting the main elements of the narrative, any arguments, messages, or unique points or perspectives presented by the authors; c) a critical, comparative assessment of each book’s effectiveness in conveying its point or message to the reader; and d) an evaluation of the effectiveness of the graphics/illustrations that make up the book (beyond the text or narrative itself). Students are welcome to hand in their comparative book review at any time during the semester but not after the final deadline, Thursday, July 9.
