Praise for this book
"The Kirszner/Mandell text seems more approachable because of the inclusion of things like graphic novels and music lyrics. This text also gives a more thorough explanation of the process of writing about literature."
"The book serves my purposes better than any other I've previewed. It includes modern and multicultural as well as canonized works; and focuses on understanding literature from a student perspective."
