The assignment for this week’s DB post is designed to help you practice writing a compare/contrast thesis. Choose one topic/technique/literary motif shared by both The Round House and Peace Like a River and write a 250-500 word post comparing/contrasting them. Make sure you discuss both similarities and differences. Also make sure that you avoid discussing simple plot differences. Focus instead on differences in meanings between the two works. See the paper #3 handout for more information about a compare/contrast paper
