Summary

In Literature: What Every Catholic Should Know, Joseph Pearce provides a survey of literary works of which all Catholics should be aware of. Beginning with Homer and Virgil, the book progresses chronologically through the greatest works of all time, including Dante, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Dickens, Chesterton, Eliot, Tolkien, and Lewis.

The What Every Catholic Should Know series is intended for the average faithful Catholic who wants to know more about Catholic faith and culture. The authors in this series take a panoramic approach to the topic of each book, aimed at a non-specialist but enthusiastic listener. Forthcoming topics planned for this series include: mercy, history, art, music, and philosophy.

Excellent

A wonderful introduction to literature and I love that the author read the audio book himself.
