Product Story

This is the book that patiently yet powerfully guides the reader to re-engage with classic literary fiction, autobiography, history, drama, poetry, and science. The book begins with specific techniques on how to approach a literary work, ranging from keeping a journal of summarizations and questions to a 17-step guide on how to efficiently read a novel. The annotated lists at the end of each chapter—ranging from Shakespeare to Tennessee Williams to Aristotle—recommend specific editions for each author’s work. It also provides specific translations of scientific and philosophical theories such as Robert R. Lawson's 1920 translation of Einsteins Theory of Relativity and Robert Fitzgeralds rendition of Homers The Odyssey. 480 pages. 9 2/3" H x 6 1/2" W x 1 2/3" D. (2 lbs.)
