Description

Explore how literary culture has transformed into a major force in popular culture over the past fifteen years through televised book clubs, film adaptations, online bookselling, and community reading groups. This volume presents the first critical analysis of mass reading events and contemporary reading practices across the UK, USA, and Canada, drawing on original interviews and surveys with readers and event organisers. The authors examine the resurgence of book groups and investigate the cultural formations of shared reading, offering insights into why reading communities continue to attract audiences in both physical and digital spaces. Part of the Routledge Research in Cultural and Media Studies series, this book provides an academic examination of how reading has evolved beyond traditional solitary consumption into a social and collective experience that shapes modern cultural life.
