Insightful. well-structured course. I particularly liked all the speakers and of course, it is always fun to delve deeper into historical fiction.
Super wonderful class. Very educational and enjoyable. I collected more books after this class and re-read many of them. Recommend The Love Artist featured in one of the sessions.
Too good! The instructor was way too awesome. I am not from Arts or Literature background yet understood everything easily. The author interactions were a really good learning experience
Something I definitely needed to improve my Literature knowledge! i'm glad to have found this course, it was simply amazing...
