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.
