The real opportunity to impress with this prompt is not by showing off what you’ve read, heard, or seen, but by demonstrating the kind of reader, listener, or viewer you are.
Choosing a work (book, character, song, or piece of fiction or non-fiction) for this is tricky, but here are some questions you can ask yourself to help you get there:
Is there a work that embodies a core value or important detail I haven’t shared yet?
