Between the pages of a book, magic can take over and alternate realities can unfold. From Shakespeare to fantasy to science fiction, this course travels through literature that is not bound by the confines of plausibility. Instead, it transcends planet, physics, or precedent in its effort to explore the human experience. You will hone your critical reading, thinking, and communication skills and write in a variety of styles, with a particular focus on analytical papers. Continuing our support for juniors as you prepare for college, we also tackle some college-essay writing.
