Hello all, I am seeking advice about what texts to use for the journey essay.

I am currently using Coleridge's This Lime-Tree Bower My Prison and Frost at Midnight, and Richard Kelly's film Donnie Darko. Donnie Darko seems to link in well with both Coleridge poems, but I am having trouble finding another supplementary text.

I need a text that doesn't require too much explanation and that could possibly link in with the themes/concepts/ideas of both Coleridge poems and Donnie Darko.

I've just stumbled across Ode to a nightingale by John Keats, which might just work, but unfortunately it is another poem!

Does anyone have some ideas?

Thanks

If you're asking this now, you're fucked for the exam.

Not really. I've got two other texts that I have used for half-yearly and trial that fit in quite well with DD and Coleridge, but they simply are not complex enough. If I find another text, I can at least have a bit more choice for Friday.

Complex? Wtf.

Just fucking go with what you've got. Less effort. Elaborate/exaggerate a bit. If your other two texts "fit quite well" then bloody use them, obviously.
