<p>Haha, lulumobile. I doubt your teacher would give in. Maybe if you were doing a cultural study of the values projected by thees books, you might get away with it. Otherwise, I doubt it unless you have a really chill teacher.</p>
<p>You can use a book in any way you can work it. Just a warning to those of you tempted to use books that your readers may not know of, summarize the important part of the book in a sentence or less. You do not need to explain every plot detail. Only the relevant parts for helping the reader understand the book and contribute to your essay. <em>You do not have the time to write more.</em>* Just enough to make it seem okay out of context–and support your thesis.</p>
