Customer Rating: Summary: A Great addition to the home library Comment: This is a very good compliation of literary works of Western literature. It is refreshing to read the works of the masters of literature of yesteryear. Today, most people have never read or even heard of these works. What a shame!
Customer Rating: Summary: Just what I ordered Comment: The book arrived in a couple of weeks. I would have liked it to have arrived as early as the other 2 books did, but that was okay. It was just the book I needed and at a much reduced price from what the University was charging for it.
Customer Rating: Summary: Great Service! Comment: Everything was exactly as the seller described. On time and speedy service. Would buy from again.
Customer Rating: Summary: Western Literature - Norton's Anthology Comment: Looks brand new. Very useful and I'm happy to have this in my library
Customer Rating: Summary: College level Comment: I bought this to use with Tapestry of Grace curriculum, and used it with a 14 yr old fresh out of public school. It was way beyond her vocabulary level and reading skill set. This is a book I have seen used in college classes, and it figures, because much of the poems and plays are written in old or medieval English. We ended up scrapping this book most of the time and reading the same works in modern English online.
Having said that, for a child who is used to a classical education, this collection of works would be a pleasure to read.
