Hands down one of the best compilations of literary scholarship I have read to date. Well organized and exhaustive, it should be a go-to for any student of Literature and the criticisms that shape how we think about it.

Organized by themes (race, class, etc.) as well as by individual author. Short but well written bios are also included, giving added depth to the works.

Pages are a bit thin, so be careful when doing a lot of research. I recommend using sticky tabs for quick access to favorite/frequently accessed sections
