"Zunshine proved beyond doubt that even the more conservative literary student who just wants a better reading or understanding of a specific novel stands to gain considerably by adopting the cognitive outlook and vocabulary she suggests." --Uri Margolin, University of Alberta

Synopsis
A jargon-free introduction to the rapidly growing interdisciplinary field known as cognitive approaches to literature and culture., Why We Read Fiction offers a lucid overview of the most exciting area of research in contemporary cognitive psychology known as "Theory of Mind" and discusses its implications for literary studies. It covers a broad range of fictional narratives, from Richardson's Clarissa , Dostoyevski's Crime and Punishment , and Austen's Pride and Prejudice to Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway , Nabokov's Lolita , and Hammett's The Maltese Falcon . Zunshine's surprising new interpretations of well-known literary texts and popular cultural representations constantly prod her readers to rethink their own interest in fictional narrative. Written for a general audience, this study provides a jargon-free introduction to the rapidly growing interdisciplinary field known as cognitive approaches to literature and culture., Why We Read Fiction offers a lucid overview of the most exciting area of research in contemporary cognitive psychology known as "Theory of Mind" and discusses its implications for literary studies.
