unpacking question

question 1.
2. compare uses and/or abuses of power as a theme in novels or short stories you have read. say what this theme and its presentation contribute to each work you discuss.
3. show how the theme of power/abuse was used in the books you've read in regards to presentation and the overall theme of the work.
4. identify theme and how it's used in the works.
5. darkness at noon and as i lay dying

question 2.
2.in novels and short stories, characters tend to have both "an inner life" and a "public life." both of these may be part of the fiction, if not equally so in every work. choose examples from your reading to discuss how and how effectively these two aspects of human existence are presented.
3. show how the characters of the books are to themselves and to others. show how well these two points of view are presented in the books.
4. identify characterization and style of the character in regards to themselves and others.
5. the bluest eye and as i lay dying.

I wouldn't have thought of using As I Lay Dying for the first quesiton, that would have gone to Metamorphasis if i did it.
