Explore the presentation and perception of unconventional love in three texts

The easiest ways to distinguish yourself with these sorts of questions is to keep your approach entirely thematic, avoiding any sense of chronology or order. It's all too easy to slip into analysing a text's plot in order or addressing each text individually, but to set yourself apart as an outstanding candidate and answer the question effectively you must compare relevant information seamlessly. This can be fairly simply achieved through good planning, grouping quotes to be compared into points or themes, which will form paragraphs. Finally, find a number of quotes from critics both bolstering your argument and, importantly, disagreeing with it, as disputing an established critic's work asserts that your essay is to be taken seriously as an academic appraisal of a text.
