Paperback. Zustand: Good. The New York Times bestseller is now available for the first time in hardcover. Thomas C.

How to Read Literature Like a Professor helps us to discover those hidden truths by looking at literature with the eyes--and the literary codes--of the ultimate professional reader: the college professor.What does it mean when a hero is traveling along a dusty road? When he hands a drink to his companion? When he is drenched in a sudden rain shower?Ranging from major themes to literary models, narrative devices, and form, Thomas C.

Whether it's Hamlet delivering a soliloquy or the glorious Twelfth Night feast in Joyce's The Dead, in Foster's capable hands the joys of reading are opened. Foster spent his career teaching literature and now puts the tools into your hands.…
