Table of Content
Contemporary, diverse literature that's easy for students to connect with. Nearly a quarter of the literature is new, including: Provocative new fiction that speaks to students, plus a few classics that continue to engage them. Edwidge Danticat's "The Book of the Dead" and Junot Díaz's "Drown" are new to the twelfth edition, as are the classics "Half a Day" by Naguib Mahfouz and Lu Xun's "Diary of a Madman." Recent poetry by poets to watch-- and some old favorites that students shouldn't miss. Selections from Jonathan Swift, William Blake, Czeslaw Milosz, Léopold Sédar Senghor, and others are new to the anthology, as are modern voices such as Dilruba Ahmed, Tishani Doshi, Chris Abani, Omar Pérez, and Richard Blanco. A short, teachable play from an acclaimed playwright. Edward Albee's The Sandbox makes its first appearance in the anthology in the chapter on Life and Death. A fresh harvest of nonfiction. The new essays represent some of the most stimulating work in this ever-growing genre, from critically acclaimed essays by Jeremiah Sullivan and Jonathan Lethem to graphic selections from Allie Brosh and Sabrina Jones--as well as short examples of creative nonfiction from the much-admired online journal Brevity . More support for making arguments about literature. A new section in the introduction shows students the basic building blocks of argument, and new "Making Arguments" questions throughout the thematic chapters ask students to argue critically about--and with--the literature they're reading. Four new case studies explore arguments within the genres. Case studies on debates about Flannery O'Connor (fiction), persuading the people we love (poetry), shifting historical perceptions of a classic American play (drama), and the conditions of modern-day revolutions (nonfiction) show students how literature can make arguments about our world and our lives.
