    There's a book of notes you can get.. Called something like Key english exam notes for 2010. I got it and find it brilliant. Loads of sample answers. But it's best for if you're doing Lear as your main text and Dancing at Lughnasa, Il Postino and Lies of Silence for comparative. All the poets are in it too.

    If you are doing wuthering heights, il postino, playboy of the western world there is a book called comparative 2010 by mary slatterly or suma, also has 2 other sets but i can't think of them off hand

    Only like 10 euro or so but amazing for the comparative

    we're doing il postino, WH and playboy for our comparative. that book you're talking about sounds like the notes our teacher gives us. she must photocopy them. it'd be really worth buying it though. it goes through all of cultural context, gen vision and viewpoint and literary genre, in those 3 texts together. there's sample answers as well and all you have to do is look over them and you're sorted for comparative. no making up your own notes that mightn't even be right, and trying to learn them off!:pac::pac:

    Don't know if there are any sample answers there for those.. But if you go by the sample headings for each you won't go astray. Like for general vision and viewpoint- it is shown through the way the text opens, developes and concludes; key characters and relationships and the portrayal of society. It's easy enough to do out a model answer for yourself under these headings if you reference each text in relation to them.. It also makes it very easy to remember. Even if you look at some of the sample answers for different texts you'll get the idea.
