EN 102-A1 Midterm Exam Prompt Summer Session 1 2017 Midterm EN 102: Literary Analysis (15%) In an in-class essay, support one of the three following theses about the short story "Leftovers” by Kiare Ladner. The story was published in the Oct/Nov 2015 issue of Eclectica Magazine (Issue 19 No. 4). To the exam, you can bring a copy of the prompt (these instructions), the short story, and an outline you made based on the thesis you plan to argue. Your outline may only be an outline-no full sentences-written on a 3"X5" index card. You may annotate the story but, again, no full sentences You should cite specifics to support your argument. Your essay will need clear organization (with transitions) and support for the thesis. This support will come from the text, and you will need to explain how the examples from the text support the thesis. Make sure that you are prioritizing analysis over summary. Beware of over-quoting and/or not integrating or discussing included quotations. Cite all quotations and paraphrases in MLA format. Include a works cited entry at the end of your essay. At the conclusion of the exam, turn in your index card, the short story, scrap paper, this prompt if you printed it out, and your bluebook essay. Choose one of the theses bolded below and write an essay that supports the thesis with strong, specific support from the text. Ladner's choice to use second person narration, as if the husband is talking directly to his wife, reveals how the husband is coming to terms with his wife's changing state of mind and personality. The short story, “Leftovers," is an account of the onset of Alzheimer's in the narrator's wife that illuminates the impact the disease has on intimate relationships such as marriage. The narrator attempts to recover his wife's appetite through manipulating her sense of taste, but his attempts ultimately reveal more about the changes he is experiencing than about her new condition.

as cooking. At the beginning of the story, he talks to her about forgetting to include chicken in
the chicken stew. The condition has eaten away her memory such that she does not remember the
things she used to love such as food and experiences she enjoyed together. The narrator is
