I studied English literature because my hobby was reading novel. yet, I was wrong. Literature is about how to be a critical thinker, you critics a novel or poem not merely enjoy it. Think about the intrinsic and extrinsic entities of the prose, what is the text, context, co-text of the literary works are created, when, where, and try to know why the poet or author create it. Often, you need to visit the place of the author created the literary works, such as cafe, house, or library. To ensure, you are in the right context.
