I have gone through this book & I'm very sure to say it's extremely useful & helpful for those who have keen interest in profound examination & investigation of Literary terms in English which have made the literature embellished, flourished & dazzling from time to time. Just go for it! You wouldn't repent.

This book has been helping me in my studies (Eng.Hons 1st year) to a great extent.It has an easy-to-interpret dictionary-format and contains almost all the major topics required to understand texts and write answers to questions.

literature students, this is for you. it is a revised edition. if your preparing for NET exam, then this book is a must.

I wanted to purchase a book on 'Literary Criticism' and 'Literary terms' each. And seeing that my professor who has quite a few authoritative and old 'british' books on the same topic prefers this book by M H Abrams, I purchased it without further question.

I was surprised yet rejoiced to see that it covers remote topics such as French symbolism and archetypical literary criticism quite authoritatively.

About the quality of the binding and print, no complaints from my side, though I would'...

THE ONLY BEST BOOK TO UNDERSTAND LITERATURE, CRITICISM AND TERMS IN LITERATURE.
WITHOUT THIS THE RESULT OF NET/SLET IS HIGHELY IMPOSSIBLE!!!
MUST MUST READ NEW EDITION...

Good one

Good

This book is a must have for a student of English Literature. But it is written in a way just any other person might comprehend. Like a dictionary and a thesaurus, it is a treasure for the student of English.

This provides the best introductions to complex topics.

A thing which has become of a cliché is the delivery service of Flipkart. Needless to say, I received it quite before the "said" time. So, that is all.

An absolute must-buy for literature students. ANY term you could possibly need to learn about is explained with a bunch of references and examples.
