Book Reports / Tension between Nature and Civilization in "Blue Winds Dancing" and "The Bear" [2]

Hello,
This is supposed to be a three part essay that compares the effects of the tension between nature and civilization on the main characters of "The Bear" by William Faulkner and "Blue Winds Dancing" by Tom Whitecloud.

I really don't know where to begin. I know nature is seen as the enemy in "The Bear" while civilization is negative in "Blue Winds Dancing," and nature is positive in "Blue Winds Dancing" while civilization is positive in "The Bear," but can't come up with a good thesis.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Also, I really can't pay the 5 dollars, so any reply (any) would be great.
