As an English literature professor, Robert Douglas-Fairhurst has delighted in sharing his love of reading with his students. Bringing together more than 20 years of teaching, ‘Look Closer’ explores the iconic works of literature that have formed, sustained and entertained him, from timeless classics like ‘Wuthering Heights’ and ‘Dracula’ to modern masterpieces such as ‘Normal People’ and ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’, as well as children’s books, poetry, plays, short stories and comics. It is a masterclass in how to be human. By revealing the simple techniques to slow down, take note and bring a text to life, the book is the culmination of a life spent reading. This book is for anyone interested in how literature works and makes clear why reading is more relevant than ever in these turbulent times.
