Customer Reviews

A great general survey of British Literature

This book is very, very big, covering a wide time period of pieces. It is over 900 pages, I think, so it does include a lot of pieces. My only complaint is that there isn't enough Shakespeare in it... ): If I remember right, I think it only has one of his plays, and one or two of his poems. Which is... not enough for my taste. ^^;;; But all and all, this is a really nice book. I highly recommend it.
