Reviews
"This study will be a useful defense to challenges of the novel because it explores the darker themes that are so often objects of complaint. It is not bogged down by literary jargon or contexts, making it an accessible introduction to literay criticism and to the novels for students, parents, educators, and opponents of the novels. Timely and relevant, this guide is a helpful addition to any YA nonfiction collection." --VOYA, Study Aids Get Chic Concerned about keeping up at the book club? Stuck for something to say when dinner party talk turns to Zadie Smith? Or no time to read Captain Corelli's Mandolin before the movie comes out? Never fear, cool new study aids are here in the form of Continuum Contemporaries The Novel Approach, a series of handy readers' guides to contemporary fiction. Launching in September, with further waves in January and May 2002, they're much slicker than the frumpy cheat-aids of yore, including everything from website links to review buzz, and deliberately featuring new novels such as Bridget Jones's Diary, The Shipping News, Trainspotting, and even the Harry Potter books., "the book is certainly successful...the greatest benefit of this book is in the list of works cited." --Orana, 11/02, 'Far and away, the single best piece of literary criticism on the Potter series has been Philip Nel's J . K. Rowling's Harry Potter Novels: A Reader's Guide ... there is an excellent list of recommended "further readings" ...along with classroom discussion questions (mostly for older students); there's also a very extensive and helpful list of Web sites that deal with the books... Nel's analyses are both insightful and helpful, citing a clear moral foundation throughout the series.' ~ Trelease-on-reading.com, "Nel gives the Harry Potter novels credibility as more than just a current fad. This study will be a useful defense to challenges of the novels because it explores the darker themes that are so often objects of complaint .Timely and relevant."--VOYA, February 2002, Study Aids Get Chic Concerned about keeping up at the book club?

Rowling "s Harry Potter Novels: A Readers Guide serves as a good introduction to the world of Harry Potter without praising or damning it. It also has the most complete biography of Rowling contained in any of the books here [other books discussed: Harry Potter and the Bible: The Menace Behind the Magick, Richard Abanes; The Irresistible Rise of Harry Potter, Andrew Blake; Exploring Harry Potter: Beacham "s Source Book for Teaching Young Adult Fiction, Elizabeth Schafer], as well as an unbiased discussion about Pottermania. This nook might serve as a minor reference work for the Potter scholar, and the discussion questions at the end could serve as inspiration for a critical paper or college classroom discussion about the Harry Potter books. Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts, Winter 2004, "I have found Nel's book especially appealing for my college students who have read Rowling's work and are ready to read about it, and it would provide good material for an adult reading group discussing the Harry Potter novels...Nel's book will fit in your hip pocket adn definitely packs teh most bang for your buck for all the about-Potter books."--Lana Whited, The Lion and the Unicorn, "Nel gives the Harry Potter novels credibility as more than just a current fad.

- e***a (272)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaOrdered from USA and arrived to me in UK about 10 days later. Book appropriately packaged and mostly as described. Was missing the cd as listed but communication with the seller was friendly and polite if not a little confusing - partial refunds are only offered after you start the formal eBay return request process, they aren't capable of giving refunds after simple messaging to customer service. All in all though, great value and a positive transaction. Would interact again 👍
- e***- (123)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaUnfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.
