Rescuing the subject from dry theorists and "isms”, Clare Connors considers the real questions that emerge when studying literature, such as how we find meaning and how it relates to its historical context. Using selections from works including Annie Proulx’s "Brokeback Mountain”, this unpretentious introduction highlights how enjoyable it is to think about reading.
