"I like the idea of front loading the text with the nuts and bolts of reading and writing about literature. The selections are indeed challenging, but I also think they are more accessible and varied than those included in other texts. This text does seem well-suited to a wide range of high school students, whether superstars or neophytes."

"This book is what I have wanted since I started teaching AP. I can't wait to use it."
