Writing about Literature
I guess this might have been helpful for writing essays and whatnot. Yet, even though I read it for class, we never really made reference to it and I didn't use it while I actually did my writing. Thus, whether or not it is actually useful...I can't really say. It was clear to read though and raised some good points/ideas.
