For this assignment, you will be required to write a 2-3 page (double-spaced) character analysis on a main character from the book “The Rent Collector” written by Cameron Wright.
**Make sure you have an introduction, a minimum of four body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Also, you will need a Works Cited page.
Here are the main characters:
Sang Ly – the story is told from her point of view
Sopeap Sin – the rent collector
You will write about the traits of your chosen character. Remember, traits of a character are revealed through what a character says, thinks, and does. As you read the book, you were asked to think about what the character says, thinks, and does – what do these words, thoughts, and actions say about the character? You were asked to make notes in your text and/or on a separate sheet of paper as you moved through the text so you could provide textual evidence in your analysis. For example, it is not enough to simply say that your chosen character is brave. You must PROVIDE EVIDENCE of this bravery through what the character says, thinks, does. You can provide evidence in the form of direct quotes and/or paraphrases from the text.
You must also discuss if your character is a static character or a dynamic character. Does your character change by the end of the story? If not, why do you think they did not change? If so, how did the character change? So, you will have the introduction, three body paragraphs (each one will discuss a character trait), a paragraph about whether your character is dynamic or static (consider questions above as you write this paragraph, and a conclusion.
Your introduction should contain background information about the story, but be sure that you are not giving TOO MUCH background because the focus of the essay is character analysis, not book summary.
