Literature : An Introduction to Fiction, Poetry, and Drama

Literature 8/e , the most popular introduction of its kind, is organized into three genres-Fiction, Poetry, and Drama. As in past editions, the authors' collective poetic voice brings personal warmth and a human perspective to the discussion of literature, adding to students' interest in the readings.

This edition reflects a balance of classic works along with contemporary and non-Western authors. More theory has been added through the addition of new casebooks and new critical essays.
