Description
A literary master’s entertaining guide to reading with deeper insight, better understanding, and greater pleasure
“Part of the fun of the book is the way in which Eagleton prompts, provokes and at times infuriates. . . . An ideal introductory guide to critical analysis, and a thoroughly enjoyable reminder of Eagleton’s own skill and subtlety as a reader.”-Felicity James, Times Higher Education Supplement
“This book is seriously good fun. . . . It fizzles and explodes with ideas. You don’t have to be either teacher or beginner to relish it: Eagleton is so full of enthusiasm that you just need to be able to read.”-Sue Gaisford, The Tablet
