In this course the word novel designates any extended fictional narrative, almost always in prose. In addition to becoming better readers, we will work toward understanding the culturally complex world within and around the novel. We might travel from the alleyways of Defoe's London to the mean streets of Dreiser's Chicago, from the chill of Hawthorne's New England to the heat of Faulkner's Yoknapatawhpha County.
