I thought that he was a great professor. This class was very interesting. I would say to just bring your computer, and type everything that he says about the book. There were five 2 page papers about analyzing the books that we read in class (my average grade for these was an A-). One take-home midterm, which was easy (I got an A on this). Depending on which TA you got, the amount of pages for it varied. My TA only required one page per essay prompt (there were 3), but some of the other TAs required at least a page and a half to two for each prompt. Final wasn't take home, and you had 3 hours to write 3 essays. They were easy, though. Again, analyzing the text. It was a little challenging, though, because towards the end I got pressed for time (I wasn't able to write conclusions for the essays). Easy and interesting professor. Easy class, easy A. Definitely recommend. If Kfir Mordechay is one of the TAs, GET HIM!!!!!! :)
