        <description><![CDATA[A letter about Myers' book can include several elements.  One such element would be Stevie's explanation of the different phases of the trial.  Perhaps, this would involve incarceration and the idea of dealing with the intricacies of a trial.  This would involve talking about his lawyer's defense of he and his actions coupled with the prosecution, who labels Stevie a "monster."  Another aspect of the letter could involve how Stevie wants...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The main character of Myers’ work is Steve Harmon. He is about 16 and an African- American male who has dreams of becoming a filmmaker. He is the protagonist, and we know much of the trial and the story through his own eyes. We do not really know if he committed the murder of which he is accused, but we know he was there and that there is a part of him that embraces the lifestyle which might lead him to do so. His narration is told through...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The primary change in Monster is how Steve views himself.  Again, we really do not know if he is innocent or guilty.  Perhaps, it is the author's strength in description that leaves us in the middle of trying to determine for ourselves what happened the night in question.  However, we do know that Steve has changed.  His change has resulted from the trial and the emotions trapped within it.  He has to balance what he knows he did in his...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Plot is merely the series of events in a story.  In Monster it may be difficult to isolate the plot due to the screenplay format or the use of flashback. The action takes place during a two week period in the life of Steve who has participated in an armed robbery.  He writes this screenplay from prison where he awaiting trial for this crime.  The plot revolves around this time in prison and his trial, but flashes back to the events that led...]]></description>
