Reading for Wisdom: A Guide to Literature for Difficult Times Kindle Edition

by Andrew Culver (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
See all formats and editions
Where do we turn when we need answers to life's hardest questions? Where can we find wisdom when life gets difficult, disappointing, or disastrous? Who will guide us through the ups and downs of life?

In Reading for Wisdom, an English teacher makes the case that literature can help us the most in hard times. Andrew Culver presents a guide to how we can find answers in poetry, plays, novels, myths, and short stories. From Shakespeare to Native American myths to Emily Dickinson to James Baldwin, Culver provides a manual for surviving life's difficulties by reading.
