Review:
The most original and creative literature textbook I have ever seen. --McGraw Hill Survey
I am most impressed by the promise of meeting students needs in their struggle to move from summarizing to discussing style and technique. --McGraw Hill Survey
Step by step instructions are by far the best rubric I have ever seen for writing a critical essay - brilliant, succinct, essential, and clear. --McGraw Hill Survey
