This is an excellent course that forces you to delve deeper into amazing pieces of literature. Reading and studying these excellent novels has been an amazing experience.

I enjoyed selecting and reading two new (to me) novels, and hope to incorporate them (or at least pieces/aspects of them) into my teaching this year. My school is transitioning American Literature into a full year course (from a half year), so I have more time and ability to give voice to a richer variety of texts and writers.

This has been one of the most interesting courses I've taken recently because there is so much scope for diving into the novels selected. It was fascinating to rediscover the "simple" novel The Pearl (Steinbeck) but to see its complexity some 50 years after first reading it. This is a well-structured course which can result in lots of new discoveries.

Loved this course,it made me exam a novel differently and also see how I wanted my students to take in this novel. I was more thorough on my lessons and background. Finding critiques on pieces from the time in which they were published was most exciting. Interesting to see how there peers felt compared to later times with such a changed society.
