To review a literary work.

Explanation:

The purpose of a literary analysis essay is to review a literary work. This means that in order to write a proper literary analysis essay, it is not enough to summarize the work, and simply retell what the events of the story are. It is also not enough to give our personal opinion on it or a detailed description. We need to review the quality of the author's choice of words, literary devices, themes, etc. and evaluate whether he is effective in conveying the ideas he wanted to convey.
