A good introduction to English literature This book won't save your life if you're studying at university,not in my case at least,but it is a good way of having an overall idea about English literature | ||
A good investment This book was very helpful and instrumental in reawakening my understanding, knowledge, and appreciation of English Literature. I purchased it as a study guide for Lit exams, it did the trick as I aced the exams. I really love the book and how easily and accessibly they present the subject. | ||
