Norman Holland turns toward reader-response criticism and the controversial question of individual reader’s varying responses to works of literature. In this informal and accessible book, Holland gauges student responses to poems by H.D., Swift, Keats, and Frank O’Hara. He reveals that each reader recreates the poems in accordance with his or her own central myth. (Publisher)
