• Extensive examples of literary texts from Old English to contemporary literature, covering genres such as religious, realist, romantic, science fictional, and surrealist texts, encompassing poetry, prose, and drama.
• New chapters on the mind-modelling of character, the building of text-worlds, the experience of immersion and ambience, and the resonant power of emotion in literature.
