Half of US shuns literature
A report released in July 2004 says the number of adults who read no literature increased by more than 17 million between 1992 and 2002. It found that 47% of American adults read poems, plays or narrative fiction in 2002, a drop of seven percentage points from a decade earlier. Those reading any books at all in 2002 fell to 57%, from 61%.
