Presenting Analysis, Context & Criticism on Commonly Studied Novels
Volume 40 
eBook version- Published by Gale
Each volume of Novels for Students contains easily accessible and content-rich discussions of the literary and historical background of 12 to 15 works from various cultures and time periods. Each novel included in this new resource was specially chosen by an advisory panel of teachers and librarians -- experts who have helped us define the information needs of students and ensure the age-appropriateness of this reference's content.
Each volume (beginning with volume 32) will include two "Literature to Film" entries. Entries profiling film versions of plays/novels not only diversify the study of plays/novels but support alternate learning styles, media literacy, and film studies curricula as well.
Here are some of the novels they will find - "The Bingo Palace" by Louise Erdrich; "The Color Purple" film entry; "The Corrections" by Jonathan Franzen; "The Idiot" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky; "Jazz" by Toni Morrison; "The Ox-Bow Incident" by Walter Van Tilburg Clark; and "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy.
