Literary Devices (Wooden Books Gift Book) Paperback – 1 Oct. 2019

I love this book. It is a pocket book that explains many of the most popular and powerful literary devices. Ever wondered where all the great and most memorable lines from Shakespeare, political speeches, books, poetry and films come from?"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?""And so my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you...""All animals are created equal but some are more equal than others.""In Xanadu did Kubla Khan...""Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.""You don't understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender..."They were not written by luck. They were written to a formulaic construction identified and outlined by the Ancient Greeks and beyond.This great little book gives you an introduction to the power words have when they are put into the right order. If you write you will learn how to harness that power. Warning; this is only an introduction and buying it could start you on a lifelong journey of discovery. This pocket book is an excellent introduction to this field, ideal commute or holiday reading. Enjoy.

Great product, thank you.
