The Pleasures Of Reading In An Ideological Age

This text, with a new preface by its author, charts the conflict between the proponents of popular culture on the one hand and the defenders of high art on the other. Robert Alter argues cogently for great literature, and using examples from world literature, illustrates the pleasures of reading.
