Title: Ugh
Review: I had to buy this book for a course in college, or else I probably would have never even looked at this book. I imagine anyone else who is buying this book is in the same boat as me, if so, then good luck. If you don't absolutely have to buy this book for a course, then don't. It is boring, confusing to read, and never really clarifies anything. The author explains what folklore isn't, not what it is. They explain why folklorists methods don't really work, not which ones do work. Everytime I have to read for an assignment I come out feeling just a little more stupid than I was before. Do not buy this book unless you have to!!!
Is the review positive or negative?
