Reviews

""Gorman has written what will be a very significant and controversial book. He explores how the lack of engagement with real participants in the popular arts undercut the critique Left intellectuals in the twentieth century made of mass culture. Moreover he tells his story with great acuity and by introducing the reader to a terrific cast of characters."" -- Daniel Horowitz, Smith College ""This thoughtful, subtle, and penetrating cultural history traces and analyzes the nature and sources of the left intellectual's overall problematic response to mass entertainment, from the end of the 19th century to the present."" -- CHOICE
