In many ways your ISU paper will be similar to the Stone Angel essay. Your thesis will outline to what extent you feel the remarks made in the critical essay you selected do or do not apply to your ISU novel.
I suggest you spend a good deal of time trying to digest your critical essay. Having a printed copy which you can annotate and highlight will be highly advantageous. Once you are comfortable with the essay you can begin to identify whether or not you agree with your reviewer.
If you largely agree with your reviewer then you can represent his or her argument and add in examples of your own. If you disagree with your reviewer, then you can quote your ISU novel (and your essayist) in order to show where he or she is missing the point.
