Abstract
Recently, the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) released a report titled Reading at Risk based on a government-sponsored 2002 survey of arts participation. The report, discussed in the mainstream news and by countless pundits and Internet bloggers, found that fewer Americans today are reading poetry and literary fiction compared to a decade ago, and alarmingly, the most dramatic declines were among young people.
