Interact with Literature

Interact with Literature is tailored for upper secondary school students, high school prep classes, and university undergraduates (ages 15 and older). It is suitable for advanced English programs, including IB English (Language B Higher Level or Language A), AP English Literature, Cambridge English C1 courses, and university departments of Western Languages and Literatures.

The series covers advanced levels spanning CEFR B2, and C1. Texts and apparatus are calibrated to challenge learners who already possess solid grammatical proficiency and are ready to tackle complex narrative structures, archaic expressions, figurative language, and sophisticated literary devices.

Standard graded readers focus primarily on vocabulary control and basic plot comprehension. Interact with Literature functions as an academic literary anthology. Each text features extensive footnotes, biographical essays, socio-historical context dossiers, close-reading questions, and essay-writing assignments that train students to construct coherent literary arguments.
