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.
