Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
A proven classroom favorite for more than three decades, this anthology continues to appeal to students and instructors with its broad range of enticing stories, poems, plays, and essays and its flexible structure. The arrangement by both theme and genre encourages students to think deeply about crucial topics while they learn about the four main genres of literature. The new edition provides a broader selection of works — including many from non-Western traditions — and more help for reading literature.

Great book that arrived in great condition. There are some great stories and poems in this book. One of my favs so far is "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson and "Two Kinds" by Amy Tan.

It's a textbook. You are required to buy it to take the course. It's cheaper to buy it on Amazon, than at your college book store. That's all you need to know.
