Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the often negative portrayal of readers in modernist fiction, this book analyzes how prominent authors depict the act of reading as linked to misfortune and sexual dynamics. It examines the evolution of fictional readers from the early to mid-twentieth century, highlighting themes of misreading as a limitation, a form of sexual invitation, and an ideological critique. Brian Richardson, an expert in modern literature, offers insights into the complex relationship between reading and character fate in works by notable modernists.
