Answer оne оf the fоllowing prompts for your writing response. Your writing response should consist of а five pаrаgraph essay, including: 1) an introduction with an arguable thesis (2-3 sentences); 2-4) three body paragraphs with topic sentences, evidence and explanation; and 5) a conclusion (2-3 sentences). As always, you should quote directly from the text(s) at least twice in your response. You will have 35 minutes to complete the writing assignment, so be mindful of time. In a well-thought out response, complete with a thesis/topic sentence, support from the text, and analysis, analyze Raymond Carver’s “Cathedral” and James Baldwin’s “Sonny’s Blues” for the subject of intimacy. Identify one central theme about intimacy and/or community that you believe both authors advance. Consider how connection (or the failure of connection) develops between characters, and how moments of understanding, vulnerability, or shared experience shape the meaning of each story. Ground your response in literary devices, and remember you should be making an argumentative claim about both of the texts.
