This study aims to investigate the effects of literary texts as a teaching tool to enhance college students’ English communicative competence both in linguistic aspects and affective ones. The control group used only the course book as study material, whereas the target group read four short stories along with it and engaged in a series of follow-up tasks. To measure their English competence, the researcher had both groups take a pre-test and a post-test, compared the results, and analyzed the data using SPSS. The study indicates that though the target students’ post-test scores increased, the result failed in reaching a significant level. Nevertheless, reading and discussing literature facilitated the target students’ affective aspects of communication. This article points out some other limitations of utilizing literary texts in language teaching and suggests the need for further research to deal with the issues.
