Bio:

The **Norton Anthology of American Literature, Ninth Edition** is a two‑volume (A & B) comprehensive survey of U.S. literary texts from the colonial period through contemporary works, edited by Robert S. Levine, Michael A. Elliott, Sandra M. Gustafson, Amy Hungerford, and Mary Loeffelholz, and published by W. W. Norton in 2016–2017 . It represents a full revision under Levine’s general editorship, introducing new authors, topical clusters, and enhanced editorial apparatus to support teaching and learning; a shorter “Shorter Ninth Edition” condenses content for survey courses . The full version spans roughly 2,600 pages across volumes; the shorter version is less extensive but retains the same editorial design and commentary.
