Writing About Literature

Students who write about what they read learn twice, for as they plan and develop their writing, they necessarily grow as thinkers. This book provides comprehensive discussions and sample papers for students who are writing about the elements of literature. All chapters contain discussions of important literary subjects-such as character, setting, and symbolism-followed by a guide to the necessary steps for students to produce good essays. This accessible text is a perfect companion for any course that wants to focus on strengthening writing skills.
