Synopsis
An alternative to large and costly books, this volume offers a wide, well-balanced selection of fiction, poetry, and drama in a handy format for less than half the price of a typical introductory literature anthology.
The 35 stories, 250 poems, and 9 plays are arranged chronologically and by genre and offer a choice gathering of classic and recent literature for today's readers. For an alphabetical listing of all the writers represented in these pages, turn to the inside front cover.
Grouped at the back of the book for convenient reference are a concise guide to reading and writing about literature, biographical notes on the writers, and a glossary of critical and literary terms.
