Literature Without Borders
2012/2/1
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
I was looking for a textbook to use for a Literature class. This book fit the bill and my budget perfectly. I appreciated the prompt response in shipping the book to me. It was an enjoyable experience and I will keep this in mind for my next purchases as well. I was very nervous making an online purchase, but this one was comfortable and easy. Thanks for everything.
A Neat Little Anthology

形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
"Literature Without Borders" is a good book for individuals interested in using multicultural writings as a gateway into the edification of variegated ethnicities from around the world. There were some wonderful short stories about Native American behaviors ("Yellow Woman") and poems about the Black experience ("For My People") that highlight the plights of people from unfamiliar groups. There are plenty of narratives from African countries that focus on the civil turmoil ("Waiting for a Turn") and international greed ("Africa Kills Her Sun") that is ravaging the continent. Topics range from the view of homosexuality in Communist China ("The Bridegroom") to racism in Canada ("The Loons") and the Pacific ("White Fantasy-Black Fact") exposes that, irrespective to land mass and distances, we all struggle with the same issues. The only two setbacks: the incomplete, if not misleading, mini-autobiographies that does a great disservice to the featured authors and the lack of attention to the Latin culture (there were a handful of Hispanic literary contributions).
Thought Provoking

This book was assigned for my class about themes in world literature. We had some amazing class discussions and the stories were very eye opening and thought provoking. This is one of the few books I have kept after finishing a class.
