Join us to discuss “How to Read Literature Like a Professor” by Thomas C. Foster. Recognizing that a shared understanding of literature can serve as a cultural bond, Foster, professor emeritus of English at the University of Michigan, uses colorful language and storytelling to help interpret themes, concepts and symbols commonly found in literature, offering the reader roadmaps to help uncover hidden truths, just as a professor would. A fun read that does not present like a textbook, this book provides a solid and in-depth look into symbolism and other literary elements. This book is a great source of insight into becoming a better reader and a helpful reference in the process of writing. An extra treat is the bibliography that provides a great catalog of classics to read. Check out this list for other books that can help you improve your reading.
