Reading Tasks

All applicants are being requested to work on the following titles. How you will read? Find a suitable website that explains Plot, Characters, Themes, and Symbolism or Linguistic Uniqueness. Instead of copying from the source-sites, read it and summarize these ideas in 4-5 Paragraphs. DO NOT use headings like - Plot, Characters, Themes, Symbolism etc. Best resources are Britanicca and Wikipedia. But if you want a more in-depth reading please go to Sparknotes

  1. Aryan: Tess of the D'Urbervilles (19th C. English Novel about the tragic fate of human life)
  2. Jannat: The Awakening (20 C. American Novel about Liberated Woman)
  3. Uzayr: A Passage to India (20 C. British Novel about Colonial Rule in India)
  4. Ramisa: Crime and Punishment (19th C. Russian Novel about Crime and Redemption)
  5. Naqvi:  Correspondence between Princess Elizabeth and Rene Descartes (17th C. Letters)
  6. Mehzabin: Metamorphosis (20th C. Short Novella about the fate of Modern Man)
  7. Juhaina: Robinson Crusoe (18th C. Novel about Survival of Man in Wilderness)
The summaries will take One/Two hour to Read and One hour to Write. And I would appreciate, if you send it tonight. Our main goal is to improve understanding of literary language and prepare for SAT. For SAT Writing briefing, I will conduct a ZOOM Meet on Friday Morning 8.30 am.
