Why Smart Women Like Chick Lit

My hulking bookshelves hold an eclectic collection of volumes. Some Eliot here, a few Roths there, a smattering of Shakespeare, Rawls, Darwin. Several are from the Strand; their secondhand jackets are yellowed. The typeface on my books' bindings is often bold and austere. The exception, though, is a cluster of paperbacks with hot-pink covers and suggestive titles in curly cursive.
