Need advice for my WIT essay


Recommended Posts

I am writing my WIT essay on "Family Ties" by Clarice Lispector, and the essay question is about how Lispector is able to show the challenges women face in her work

My thesis  is: Lispector is able to highlight the social bigotry that faces women, particularly against men. 

My subtopics are: Symbolism, characterization (the perspectives of the characters who perceive women to be inferior), and points of view of female characters. 

I feel, however, that my second and third subtopic may overlap. My second subtopic is focused on how other characters perceive women, and my third subtopic is focused on how the female characters perceive themselves and their societal expectations. I also feel that my first subtopic does not go along with the other subtopics, given how it is a "technique" subtopic, while the others are "ideas".

What do you guys think?
