Learn Live: Creative Reading – Dialogue

The interaction of characters in a work of fiction is usually revealed most clearly through dialogue.

This online course explores the value of reading fiction analytically – but without the jargon – both for those who wish to read well in order to write well and for those who are simply interested in approaching literary texts in a more thoughtful way.
