For the first part of the text, you should analyze the main character. Some novels have more than one main character; in that case you should pick one.
Keep in mind that there is a difference between an analysis and a description. You should not simply describe the character, but discuss why you think the character acts the way they do.
You should use two quotes which you think show important aspects of the character. This can be about the character’s progression throughout the novel, certain traits (karaktärsdrag) that the character has, etc. Some questions you can ask yourself when reading:
– What is the main character like? How does the main character’s personality impact the story?
– What is the main character’s motivation?
– Does the main character change during the novel? If so, how and why?
– What role does the main character have in the story?
