Title: Norton Anthology Shorter Fifth Edition
Review: This anthology is a must have for anyone interested in not only reading American Literature, but anyone who has an interest in American History. From Christopher Columbus' letters to Tennessee Williams' famous "Stella!" in A Streetcar named Desire, this anthology covers everything. The introductions to the pieces of literature not only tell about the author but the history behind the works. There is something for everyone and though it is huge (2879 pages to be exact)it takes up less room than would owning all of the classics in this anthology. I gave this anthology four stars only due to the akward size and the thin pages that cause you to look through to the other side of the page, blurring the already small type. It is a small price to pay, though, for so many classic works of literature.
Is the review positive or negative?
