Re: STPM Literature in English Discussion Forum
oh dear, have not read any of the novels or shakespeare's plays. we probably have to start off with the poems first. how about the selected shorter poems of Keats? What are those poems?

Re: STPM Literature in English Discussion Forum
dear nur amaleena najwa,
sorry for this late reply. you can get the book from any bookstore that sells school books. i saw it in popular.

or try any of the bookshops along jalan tunku abdul rahman. they usually sell school books.

if you still can't get it, go to dewan bahasa and pustaka. there is a book store at the ground floor of the building.

if you still can't get it...hmmmm.....look for any form one guy/gal, give some candy to him or her, borrow the book and photocopy it.

))

all the best.
