Note that your response should take the form of an argumentative essay. Frame a clear and analytical thesis, structure a linear argument, and muster your evidence within purposeful paragraphs. Quotes need not be cited verbatim; paraphrasing is normal, although key diction should be preserved. Concepts or arguments from assigned articles should be deployed with precision and in their technical (as opposed to colloquial) meanings.

In Suki Kim’s The Interpreter and Susan Choi’s A Person of Interest, we are given protagonists/detectives not only “interested” (as opposed to disinterested) but implicated in the mysteries of their pasts. Suzy long benefitted from her parents’ perfidy, to which she seems to have turned a blind but deliberate eye; Lee’s wrongdoings entail all that he did not do to prevent—perhaps amounting to an aiding and abetting in—the kidnapping or disappearance of his stepson. Bearing in mind those more nebulous crimes as well as the murders that set each book’s formal investigations into motion, construct an essay that does the following:

Examines the last chapter of each novel in detail, as your essay should aim to account for or make sense of what is encompassed in each.

Compares the stories’ respective conclusions/resolutions and considers how/whether these final chapters execute each of these mystery conventions:

Judiciously use Malmgren’s definitions of these conventions and draw evidence from other section of the novels as needed.

On the basis of those comparisons, explains how each novel has managed the question of its protagonist’s “guilt”: what has s/he been guilty of, and is that guilt expiated by the plot?
