We Read Books So We Won't Cry (Research).
Otto, Wayne
Journal of Reading, v34 n2 p132-35 Oct 1990
Discusses Janice A. Radway's "Reading the Romance: Women, Patriarchy and Popular Literature." Argues that reading educators should consider a more general premise embodied in the book: in order to understand the appeal (or lack of it) of certain books, then educators first need to understand what the books are for the students who read them.
