so i told my teacher i had no idea what topic to do for my major adn he told me to do soemthing on the plague. he said that i should read the book A Year of Wonders (fiction) by Geraldine Brooks (an historian who focuses on the plague and english history). he told me to write about how close to reality her book is but i know that just writing about that is not enough. so im also thinking of writing about the social context of the plague throughout the ages and how over time we have percieved it differently. liek for example ms Brooks book was very romanticised, its as if we cant relate to the event any longer.

i was wondering if anyone could help me with a specific question for my major and also if you could tell me if im on the right track with my thoughts so far.

thanks
