Abridged GCSE English Literature Texts

 

Click on the button above to purchase abridged versions of three GCSE English Literature texts: 

  1. Macbeth, by William Shakespeare
  2. A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens
  3. An Inspector Calls, by J. B. Priestley

They’re designed to be used as a revision resource after students have read the texts in full.

The idea is for students to read them quickly (in about ten minutes or so) to help them recall key bits. From that point onwards, they should use the white space on the right-hand side to make notes on the importance of those bits. This is something that students could do with guidance from a teacher or independently for homework or revision.

Each act / stave from the texts fits on a single page. The document is fully editable, so you can add or remove anything you want. Full overview below...
