discussing pop fiction

I can't say that I picked this book out myself... I'm reading for my anthropology class on pop fiction adn politics, nonetheless it has served as a wonderful resource. The articles span several subjects, countries, and view points. Particularly excelent is Karen Barber's introduction which serves as an excelent starting point for the study of pop-culture in the setting of any region.
