The Most Dangerous Game...The story. Help!?

Question

Tomorrow, during midterms, we have to write a literary analysis on "The Most Dangerous Game"...Problem is, our teacher hasn't taught us HOW to write one and this IS the first time we are going to write one. We have to come up with a thesis statement for our analysis and I was wondering if I could get help with this. Can anyone give me possible ideas for thesis statements?...

In addition, if you have any suggestions for writing an analysis...Please tell me them =].

Thanks in advance!
