NEA texts for AQA A Level English??

Hi everyone,
I'm beginning to pick texts for my English Literature NEA coursework, but I'm a bit stuck. I really want to do a recreative piece as one of my essays, but I'm not sure where to look for a text. I've already got a text for my conventional essay (a collection of poems by Derek Walcott to look at through a postcolonial lens) but I'm not entirely sure that I want to do that text or do another one. I definitely want to use the feminist lens but I can't decide whether to do my conventional essay or my recreative piece.
So if anyone has any text suggestions (particularly for feminist lens/texts that aren't feminist but could be reworked into another perspective for a recreative text) that would be brilliant!
Thanks :smile:

Do you have a question in mind that you want to particularly explore, something that is a little more niche so you could look for texts online that explore the theme?
If you want to focus on a post-colonial reading, do you want to focus on how colonisation has affected identities or something else?
For a feminist lens, it's quite basic but would you want to look at how female identities or gender inequality is presented?
Sometimes I is easier to pick a text when you have an idea of what your question will be.
