| Publisher Description: Literary professors, and academia in general, have a history of turning a blind eye against popular fiction but why? The Ulysses Delusion explores this question by linking this literary condescension to a wider discussion on the gendered history of reading novels. Topics include Oprah's Book Club, Harry Potter, and Chick Lit. |
