”When the Wind Blows” by Raymond Brigg

Your papers should focus on Raymond Brigg’s graphic novel When the Wind Blows . You should write this essay without outside sources. As with any good essay, you will need to develop a thesis—a statement about which reasonable people may disagree —and provide textual evidence to support your claims. Your thesis can be something along the lines of how Raymond Briggs effectively uses the main characters, Jim and Hilda Bloggs, naive attitudes towards nuclear war and blind trust of their government to represent the average English attitude at the time.
