As an anthology this was done well. The beginning sections for each chapter explains the literary theory/criticism. Some of them are easier to understand than others. There were parts that were written for a higher academic level than what I am at. It bothered me that the editors put some of these selections in when it is obviously written to be a college type textbook. On the other hand, they chose some very good essays that really showed the critiques that we were learning about.
