In the spirit of sharing resources, I though we could start by sharing our favorite pieces of American literature. I have several favorite pieces, so I will narrow it down. Please limit your contributions to literature that was published between the years of 1900-1960. It can include poetry, plays, fiction, ect….
Also, feel free to include any project topics and ideas about a particular work.
Let’s get reading!
