PREFACE
Shades of Emotions is a collection of four complete and unabridged short stories whose main characters all experience strong emotions and feelings in a variety of settings, moods and times.
The writers are masters of the genre such as Katherine Mansfield, O. Henry, Kate Chopin and the great novelist D.H. Lawrence. The themes dealt with in these brief narratives are, respectively, war and sorrow, love, spiritual emancipation, and filial devotion.
The lexical and syntactical complexity of the language makes these short stories suitable for upper intermediate students of English.
As regards the organisation of the book, some biographical notes on the author precede the text. Each story is fully annotated and a wide selection of while-reading activities, presented parallel to the text, develop understanding and appreciation without interrupting the reading process.
The reader’s response section at the end of each story, allows you to focus on your reaction to and interpretation of the text in a personal and creative way, while the worksheets encourage a more detailed analysis of the book as well as suggesting a series of follow-up activities and projects.
