Loving with a Vengeance
Author: Tania Modleski
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135870195
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 171

With her trademark acuity and understanding of the power both of the mass-produced object, film, television, or popular literature, and the complex workings of reading and reception, she offers here a framework for thinking about one of popular culture's central issues. This edition includes a new introduction, a new chapter, and changes throughout the existing text.
