Reading Modernisms Readers: Virginia Woolf, Psychoanalysis, and the Bestseller explores the reading scene in modernist, psychoanalytic, and popular writing from the early twentieth century, focusing on Virginia Woolf's novels and their relationship with the works of Marcel Proust, Sigmund Freud, James Strachey, Ethel M. Dell, Melanie Klein, Marion Milner, and others. This book challenges prevailing critical assumptions about modernist reading by revealing the powerful and enduring fantasies about the role of literature in psychic, social, and political life. By examining modernism alongside psychoanalysis and the bestseller, the book aims to intervene in debates about modernism and address its legacies in contemporary literature, particularly in the context of the urgent question of how and why we read today.
