Review:
There are so many literary goodies in Judie L.H. Strouf's Literature Lover's Book of Lists that one gets a bit breathless trying to get across the full range of pleasures that await. Basically, this is a book of many lists, the sort of lists a lover of literature might seek and relish. There are lists of literature types and literary terminology, Nobel Prize winners and influential writers, schools of criticism and biblical allusions. There are reading lists of bestselling books, children's books, and lists of books for every genre of literature imaginable, from autobiography to Western masters. Strouf has a full section on poetry, as well, with lists pertaining to major poets from around the world, plus examples of ballad, elegy, and limerick. Drama is treated as thoroughly, as are literary periods, literary themes, and--of course--literary references. A brilliant reference itself for any student of literature, Strouf's opus is also an addictively browsable book, perfect for long car trips, Sunday mornings over coffee, and romantic evenings by the fire. It's every bibliophile's dream. --Stephanie Gold
From the Back Cover:
Wonderful for browsing, and invaluable for finding specific information, Literature Lovers Book of Lists is a compendium of useful and sometimes whimsical information for anyone who loves books and loves to read, at any age or reading level. It is organized into nine sections and provides nearly 200 lists relating to genres, authors, characters and settings, awards, literary terms with their definitions and much more. There are even lists of books of prose and poetry available on audiocassettes.

If it has to do with literature, this book has the answers.

What book has had the longest run on The New York Times best-seller list?

Who is the only four-time winner of the Pulitizer Prize for drama?

What is the complete list of Shakespeare's plays and poems?

Who are some of the most notable African American authors?

What are the three main variations of the sonnet?

What famous writers belonged to The Bloomsbury Group?

Literature Lovers Book of Lists is both exciting and informative at the same time.
