    A Good Book Indeed

    Very comprehensive and extremely helpful. Recommended for the learned and the beginners alike. While other books of similar pattern or glossaries take care of the critical terms only, this one gives fairly detailed introduction to critical thinkers as well. Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida, Edward Said and most other important theorists are covered.

    average book

    It's obvious from the title that this book has a lot of critical terms but the quality of the definition in each entry is not great. It's good only to know what critical terms are there (which we may not find in several other dictionaries of literary terms), but the definition and explanation given is not satisfactory. It has given very basic information which obviously is not enough. But once we know the terms related to or under different theories of criticism, we can or we have to look for...
