A* Grade A-Level Unseen Prose Answer (Timed Conditions)

Here is an essay that I wrote in (roughly!) timed conditions. The topic was an Unseen Essay Question for a contextual literature paper — where you’re given an extract from a novel that you’ve never seen before, and you have to read and write about it using your knowledge of that time period — in this case, it was the 1950s and 1960s American US culture. This is the type of essay that you’ll find at the college or university level, as well as in A-Level exams such as AQA English Literature ‘Modern Times’, OCR American Literature ‘Comparative and Contextual Study’, WJEC’S Unseen Component 3 and more. It is suitable for OCR, AQA, Edexcel, and WJEC Literature A-Level.
