Synopsis

Featuring the smallest trim size and page count of any comparable anthology, this appealing new three-genre collection encourages students to experience the pleasures of reading literature.   A Little Literature: Reading, Writing, and Argument offers a compact and economical alternative to bulky anthologies.  Despite the brevity of this compilation, a judicious mix of classic and contemporary selections–from Sophocles and Shakespeare to Amy Tan and Tobias Wolff–offers ample reading choices for instructors and students.  Concise, yet complete, editorial apparatus provides guidance on reading, writing, and, most particularly, developing arguments about literature.
