So, here's the deal.
I'm in this American lit class in my school.

We have ONE essay that is going to be our grade. It's worth like 70% of the final scores.

I want to do an essay on Allen Ginsburg's "Howl" or "Footnote to Howl". More so "Howl" than the footnote, cause its just more interesting.
But there's a problem.
I don't have a question or a thesis!!
Dx

Can any of you guys help me out? :/

It's really no hold bars.
We can write about anything as long as it involves "Howl" or the footnote.

     Haven't heard of this "Howl" so I don't think I can really assist...
Though 70%? That is... a lot!

Hmm... so what is this "Howl" about?

Well,
Its a poem by Allen Ginsberg talking about his generation and what went on during his generation.
It's online and pretty shortish.

And its 70% because everyone complained about writing 5 essays like the state requires. Idk either way.
I've made 1 B on all the essays I've ever done and I've been in a LOT of lit classes.
