Hi, I have to write a paper on Tender of the Night. I have just finished reading the book, but am having trouble coming up with a strong, compelling thesis, one that can be argued either way. Our teacher wants us to have an argumentative thesis, not just "wealth is the cause of Diver's decline", etc. He suggests that we start the paper off with a pointed question to get the ball rolling.
Any suggestion for a thesis (or a pointed question) would be appreciated. I plan on going through the book again, so if I could obtain some sort of thesis, it would put more focus into my 2nd reading (that probably didn't make sense, but then again, it's 1:00 AM :)
Thanks.
