reviewed Understanding O Pioneers! and My Antonia: A Student Casebook to Issues, Sources, and Historical Documents on April 08, 2016 Understanding O Pioneers! and My Antonia: A Student Casebook to Issues, Sources, and Historical Documents
I wanted to answer to "why catcher in the rye" after I was done with it and didn't feel impressed at the seeming purposelessness of the protagonist. Sought critical commentary for the last three literary novels I read, which has been a pleasant experience. In fact this should now be standard practice for every literary novel I read and for which such commentaries exist. The catcher now makes a whole lot better sense now. On to Prof Bloom.
