With its captivating content dealing with current social issues, it fills a gap in the literature for advanced language students who are eager to read extensively in \"real\" literature. Vocabulary lists free the student from the chore of constantly consulting a dictionary while reading, grammar and usage examples highlight new patterns, and questions for discussion explore the literary content.
