The Norton Comprehensive Literature Introduction

This is a great, comprehensive book, for your short stories, poems and plays. It includes the cannon syllabus and many lesser known works. The poetry section is particularly stong. There are also many great techniques on writing essays, and apporaches to writing about the selections. Great for college classrooms.
