In recent times, 'Chick Lit' has risen to a certain level of
prominence. This is the first book length study that looks into the
distinctive features of this much-discussed genre. Chick Lit is
examined in relation to its linguistic peculiarities and their role
as far as narrative, sociological and feminist issues are
concerned, amongst others. Montoro's stylistics includes a
cognitive slant that highlights futher readerly aspects of the
texts. The approach illuminates how the genre works, and how it is
set apart from others. In this respect, the stylistics of chick lit
is understood in its context of production and reception. Montoro
evaluates reading processes and investigates readers' responsive
attitude to the genre. This interdisciplinary work explores the
boundaries of the stylistics of chick lit and works reflectively,
looking at how exploring this genre can help the twofold aim of
testing existing models of linguistic and cognitive analysis. It
will be essential reading for those interested in cutting-edge
stylistics.
