Re: How much wider reading is necessary for AS AQA English Literature Exam Wednesday?Well... It's the first part where you are given an extract and have to answer this question: 'how does the writer present his thoughts and feeling for the struggle of identity? Refer to your wider reading'

Re: How much wider reading is necessary for AS AQA English Literature Exam Wednesday?Sometimes, the questions ask you to refer to wider reading from across the three genres. I would say refer to at least 3 texts/extracts. You don't want to talk about wider reading too much, as the emphasis is on the content in the extract, but you need to draw a few comparisons or contrasts from other texts.(Original post by princesssnoopy30)
