Audience:

Mustapha Mond who wants to know what happened after John got to London and wants to understand why it all happened that way.

Format:

The format will be a paragraph (5 to 7 sentences) on the events (and interpretation of the events) in each of the six chapters (chapters 10-15). (When you pass it in on Monday you’ll have six paragraphs and 30+ sentences.) You can write the paragraph as if the character is speaking to Mond or is submitting a report to Mond. (See above.) Each report should include information from the chapter that the narrating character would know and should also include the narrating character’s interpretation of (or reaction to) what happens.   

Topic:

What happened after John got to London and why? (What does John do? Why does he do it? How does it affect others, especially the narrating characters?) Show that you’ve read and that you’ve understood the significance of what you’ve read.
