Excellent Academic Literature book
~ Written on Feb 21, 2008. 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.

I had to buy this book for a literature class, and it is chock full of everything from poetry to plays to fiction, long and short stories. Nice book. Have been reading more than the required because it has such a nice selection.

Portable Literature: Reading, Reacting, Writing
~ Written on Sep 19, 2007. 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.

This book is a good small edition to the full-sized book. While it is off in page numbers, and thusly creates the need to admit to not having the full text, the book itself had everything I needed for my class.

Great Book

Great for any English Major will use again and again and its easier than carrying seven books.

Excellent resource for any aspiring writer
