Barn Burning

William Faulkner’s commitment to depicting “the problems of the human heart in conflict with itself” (245) finds perfect expression in “Barn Burning,” in which Sarty is torn between his growing realization of his father’s depravity and his innate conviction that there is another, better way of being in the world.

The next two paragraphs should elaborate on the two points in the first paragraph. Each body paragraph requires as its first sentence a TOPIC SENTENCE which 1) identifies the main point of the paragraph and 2) ties it back to the thesis.You will then proceed to expand on your point, provide support (including sufficient specific quotations from the story), and explain the relevance or significance of each piece of specific support you have chosen (i.e., you must comment on or explain each quotation you include). I expect the support for your points to be well thought-out and well argued. You are going to need very specific support; you will need to demonstrate your close reading of the text. Do not fill the essay with generalization and repetition of your main ideas
