The Anxiety Of Obsolescence
Kathleen Fitzpatrick
It almost goes without saying that the rise in popularity of television has killed the audience for ""serious"" literature. This book traces the ways in which a small cadre of writers of ""serious"" literature - DeLillo, Pynchon, and Franzen, for instance - have propagated this myth in order to set themselves up as the last bastions of good writing.
