Written for students beginning a serious study of literature, the text introduces the fundamental elements of fiction, poetry, and drama in a concise and engaging way, addressing vital questions that other texts tend to ignore, such as Is some literature better? and How can it be evaluated?

 Rating:  - English textbookI needed this textbook for my AP English class and I needed it fast. The product came on time and in perfect condition. I was very pleasantly surprised. Rating: - PERFECT!!!The book came directly from Amazon. It was in excellent condition (brand new). I saved alot of money compared to those other stores. The shipping was cheap too! Rating: - Great Prices for Textbooks! I was looking online for better prices on my textbooks and I found that Amazon.com's price was like $40 cheaper. I will say that I was a little disappointed at how long it took to get the book as my class began before I had the book. We have quizzes every class so it was hard to do my readings for the quizzes. Fortunately, most of these stories are in the public domain so I was able to find them online. Anyway, I love the book; it has great stories and the price was worth the wait! Rating:  - Good condition-- bad timing.it was a good book with everything looking brand new.. but it took FOREVER to get to me & i even spent more money to get it shipped sooner and i got it later then what i was supposed to... i didnt get my money back or anything for that.. so i probably will not use that company again. Rating: - Rich Literature. A great collection of American writings!I had to buy this book for a class and have been impressed with how many writings it contains. It also discusses different styles and provides in-depth descriptions to make the poetry and stories more understandable to the average reader. I would recommend this book for someone interested in reading fine literature. It also comes in handy for writers as well. |
