Description

Study and Revise for AS/a-Level: a Streetcar Named Desire is a comprehensive course companion designed to help students achieve their best grade in AS/A-level English Literature. Written by experienced teachers and examiners, this guide provides in-depth textual understanding as students read, analyse and revise Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire throughout the course.

Through detailed commentary and contextual information, this guide increases students' knowledge of the play, developing their understanding of characterisation, themes, form, structure and language. It also builds critical and analytical skills through challenging questions and tasks, encouraging students to form their own personal responses to the text.

By introducing critical viewpoints, comparative references to other literary works and suggestions for independent research, this guide extends learning and prepares students for higher-level study. It also provides clear explanations of the Assessment Objectives, sample student answers and examiner insights to help students maximise their exam potential and improve their extended writing techniques.
