Great Regulars: But I recently saw an overflow crowd

of people under 30 (900 of them for a 300-seat auditorium) come to hear Chuck Palahniuk read. And I suspect those people were more likely to read about books online than in the newspaper--especially since newspapers are providing fewer and fewer reviews.

The Internet is going to play a larger and larger role with regard to literature and publishing and criticism.
