Mit dem dünnen Buch von Lilian Faschinger bin ich gestern in der Straßenbahn noch fertig geworden. Es war ganz gut, aber sicher nicht ihr bestes Buch. Für heute Abend habe ich mich gerade für ein Buch entschieden, in dem es wieder einmal um das Lesen geht. Ich liebe ja solche Bücher und meine Sammlung darüber wächst und wächst.
Mein Neues:

How to Read Literature
Like a Professor
Like a Professor
Product Description: What does it mean when a fictional hero takes a journey?. Shares a meal? Gets drenched in a sudden rain shower? Often, there is much more going on in a novel or poem than is readily visible on the surface -- a symbol, maybe, that remains elusive, or an unexpected twist on a character -- and there's that sneaking suspicion that the deeper meaning of a literary text keeps escaping you.
In this practical and amusing guide to literature, Thomas C. Foster shows how easy and gratifying it is to unlock those hidden truths, and to discover a world where a road leads to a quest; a shared meal may signify a communion; and rain, whether cleansing or destructive, is never just rain. Ranging from major themes to literary models, narrative devices, and form, How to Read Literature Like a Professor is the perfect companion for making your reading experience more enriching, satisfying, and fun.
