It's a good source for academic scholars on who actually made up the readership of Golden Age mysteries.The Passing Tramphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09830680639601570152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137677673775151256.post-36885507049395553292013-08-30T01:13:22.193-07:002013-08-30T01:13:22.193-07:00Oh, by the way, it occurred to me that in the arti...Oh, by the way, it occurred to me that in the article I should link Orwell's Boys' Weeklies essay, so I have done so.The Passing Tramphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09830680639601570152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137677673775151256.post-85280207426849845432013-08-30T01:10:53.846-07:002013-08-30T01:10:53.846-07:00Thanks, Rosalie, I will keep at it.

I don't believe Julia Jones is trying to "invalidate" Orwell's own evidence, but she expands what we know about this form of popular literature with a very large archive of material. You should definitely give it a look.The Passing Tramphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09830680639601570152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137677673775151256.post-49530292265242802432013-08-30T00:54:06.482-07:002013-08-30T00:54:06.482-07:00Great review!!!

It'll be interesting to see how well she counters the Orwell point of view (just finding an author that goes against the grain hardly invalidates the argument) - thanks. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
