Type: book-review
Abstract: The Pleasure of Reading Novels is the latest work by comparatist Daniel Mortier (1947-2019), a specialist in the reception of Brecht in France, the final draft of which could only be completed thanks to the collaboration of family and disciples, due to the premature disappearance of the author. Based on the specific experience of readers, this monograph aims to investigate in a synthetic but complete way, from different analytical perspectives, the processes that make reading novels pleasurable.
