Example Topic Sentence for AQ • Prompt: Describe the character Paul Baumer, and specifically, how he is a sympathetic character as created by the veteran pacifist, Erich Maria Remarque. • Topic Sentence: What makes a novel detailing the horrors of war worth reading? A connection to readers. In Remarque’s 1928 pacifist novel, All Quiet on the Western Front, Paul Baumer is a sympathetic soldier who appeals to a wide audience of readers.

  9. A note about Conclusions… • Conclusions (conclusive statements) are important to wrap up the entire “package” of your paragraph. Many prompts “beg” further questions too….look at ours… • For our paragraph…The fact that Paul gains the sympathy of readers aids Remarque in creating a novel with a powerful social message: War equals the total destruction of young, intelligent, innocent people, people just like you!
