Reviews

Very good text book to help students experience all the skills needed to pass the [AQA GCSE English Language and Literature] syllabus. Plenty of practice texts, good information, good advice. Clearly written and covers criteria in detail. - 4 star Amazon review
"Brilliantly selected resources from writers such as Patricia Highsmith - but more importantly, the tasks are intrinsically interesting and creative. A marvellous compilation." - 5 star Amazon review
