Discovering Literature: Stories, Poems, Plays (3rd Edition)

Rating:
Summary: Worthy Anthology
Review: Though this anthology by Guth and Rico is extremely overpriced, it is worth it if you can find it used. There is an excellent section on Flannery O'Connor, as well as a couple of decent sections on the poetry of Dickinson and Frost. Many of the classic plays are included as well, with an emphasis on Shakespeare. My only problem was the numerous grammatical errors that seem to pepper this lenthy edition; but with nearly 2000 pages, it would be impossible to copy every line perfectly, so I cut them some slack there. Hopefully, many of the typographical errors will be corrected in the 3rd edition--then I will be able to give this anthology 4 stars instead of 3.
