Online (On-demand: view on your own schedule)

This class has been canceled for the semester.

Novels come in several genres, among them historical novels, subdivided into fiction and those based on fact adapted for fiction. And mysteries can be cozies, puzzles or detective fiction. Then there’s the epistolary novel, written as letters. And we can’t forget the epic novel or the memoir. In this course, we study genres and read novels that represent only the “best of the best” for each genre. See website for specifics at https://sites.google.com/udel.edu/booksgenres.
