Hi everyone,
I've never written a detailed critique before, which causes obvious problems for me in my 2nd year of Uni.
I have to write a detailed critique of Brian Friel's Translations, act 1.
I always wander off when writing essays (I'm a creative writing student) so my creative pieces are getting 1st level but my essays are barely passing :(

Any detailed help would be so great & thanks for reading this.
Hugs, Lucy xxx

My module is Postcolonial Literature (BA Creative writing- Literature module)

Good afternoon.

Your post is seeking course specific answers, and as such my free assistance will be very limited because your question refers to very specific source material out of my area of expertise that only you and other members of your class can access. The solution to this problem might be to seek paid professional writing support, or alternatively, you can contact your instructor, classmates, academic advisor, or media center specialist for assistance in locating materials and/or study groups on-campus that can help you complete this assignment.

Once you have the assignment completed, I can help you edit for grammar and mechanics.

I wish you luck.

Regards,
Gloria

Oh :(
Thank you for getting back to me anyway.
I am at such a loss, I don't know where to start. I thought I had to write about the book but now she (teacher) has said she wants us to discuss the stage directions and other aspects that I am very confused by.

Can you give me any advice on how to write a detailed book criticism? It's not a review & it's 2nd year degree level.

Thank you in advance and if you can't thanks still. xx

Good afternoon.

There are many possible critical theories to follow when analyzing a literary text. If you are to choose a critical theory and apply it, then it will depend on the type of theory you choose. If it is just your opinion on various aspects of the book, then it sounds like she wants an opinion piece. If you are unsure, I suggest you again speak with your instructor to see exactly what she expects from you.
