Why People Like Books Like Twilight

Taken from Page-turner draws on medieval lore - The Boston Globe:


"The novelist and critic George Orwell once perfectly summed up the appeal of 'good bad books' like 'The Gargoyle': 'The existence of good bad literature - the fact that one can be amused or excited or even moved by a book that one's intellect simply refuses to take seriously - is a reminder that art is not the same thing as cerebration.'"


cerebration

Activity of the mental processes; thinking.
