I've read the required chapters for my Theory and Text module. It's a great book. I can't wait to dived into the rest of it when I have a short reading list.

3/5 Stars (%65/100)
Though the title says "introduction," this book also works for people who have some knowledge about the subjects. I've used this book quite a lot as a textbook. The arguments were really well-put and actually interesting to read. I especially loved the chapter dealing with Shelley's "Ozymandias" as well as the ones with William Wordsworth. This is a pretty good book.

Engaging, readable and informative introduction to literary studies. Thirty two chapters which cover aspects such as the author, the text and the world, narrative, character, voice. Each chapter is supported with guidance for further reading.
