Combining classic and contemporary fiction, poetry, and drama, A Portable Anthology is an affordable collection of writing from a variety of authors, including Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickinson, Langston Hughes, Jhumpa Lahiri, Junot Díaz, Joy Harjo, and Rita Dove.
This book is filled with a bit of everything. However, specifically there are three sections: fiction, poetry, and drama. I have to say though some of the short stories are quite disturbing. But overall this book wasn't too bad to read for my Introduction to Literature class.
