Pain and suffering

This book was purchased for my wifes college class. She has just turned 50 and last year decided to return to school and complete her masters in business. English lit. was a requirement she had to complete again. My wife is quite a student but when it comes to poetry she hasn't a clue. The book has many examples of poetry and many are quite obscure. She was also required to write 2 poems for the final in this course using this textbook as an example, but, they were not to rhyme. She almost died trying NOT to ryhme. Somehow she survived. She says she never wants to see a poem again, nor this textbook.. Nothing personal I am sure...She said that the book is an example of pain and suffering, now I know why..

Great Book Quick Delivery

Great book, came quick and was in great shape. The only beef I had is that it was sent from 5 miles away and they still charged me a flat fee for shipping :( I will order again from them and book was just as described. A+
