DiYanni's "Literature: Reading Fiction, Poetry, and Drama" features student-centered approaches to literature -- from experience to interpretation to evaluation -- and an emphasis on making connections between texts and thinking critically about literature. Known for its clear presentation of the formal elements of literature and literary analysis, this anthology effectively balances classic, modern, and contemporary works across the three major genres, blending well-known writers with a diverse gathering of newer, international figures. This literary breadth is supplemented by extensive coverage of writing about literature, making this book an excellent text for introduction to literature courses as well as literature-based composition courses.

Seller's Description:
The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly. All pages and cover are intact (including the dust cover, if applicable). Spine may show signs of wear. Pages may include limited notes and highlighting. May NOT include discs, access code or other supplemental materials.
The pages were all available, but many were stained, nearly all were dogeared, and the book was starting to fall apart. I understand that it was a used book, but it really needed some better treatment. I get highlighting, occasional dogeared pages and even the occasional stain, but every page was like this.

English Textbook
I purchased this book for an English course. The quality is great and as described by the seller. I received it in a timely manner. The text itself includes hundreds (perhaps thousands) of poems, essays, dramas and fiction from which a professer can teach English. I'll keep this book.
