Review

"Over the past 15 years, I have used most of the anthologies. However, yours is by far the best."

"The factor that most influenced the selection of LRRW was its wide selection of all three genres."

"I prefer the selections in Kirszner and Mandell's LITERATURE: READING, REACTING, WRITING. The selections will provide endless opportunities and inspirations for students to find their own voices within larger critical, global, and literary contexts."

"I was rather impressed with some of the selections in the short story section, in that the editors seem to be paying a bit more attention to current writers and offering a broader range of cultures."

"The three most appealing characteristics of the book are: the Reading and Reacting Questions in every section, the fiction casebook, and the writing checklists."
