Re: Themes/ important ideas for Of Mice And Men, and An Inspector Calls!The pdf is useless for closed book, those quotes are way too long!(Original post by nervouspupil123)
Has anyone got some other good quotations to use?
The "Mice & Men Notes" are by someone on TSR, I can't recall their username

Re: Themes/ important ideas for Of Mice And Men, and An Inspector Calls!what did you say about attitudes towards women in society? i said stuff about how in a male dominated society women were objectified and used purely for sexual gratification etc... is this along the right lines?(Original post by James3110)

Quite a bit of luck to be honest :/ i used this guide to all the poems which had some key ideas and helped with the understanding of the poems. Also, i thought of 1 or 2 points for each poem that were a little 'out of the box' to try and separate me from other candidates. and i guess english is my best subject, even if i hate it
