Stephen Kastner’s Reviews > The Reader, the Text, the Poem: The Transactional Theory of the Literary Work > Status Update

Once in a great while, there comes a book that seems to possess magical powers. Like the subject explored in this book, my opinion is based on my personal experience. That experience is transforming the way I think about both writing and reading. It was written more than 40 years ago and is typically referenced as a book about reading. But, I believe it is a book intended for writers.
