YI-PING ONG, Anna Karenina Reads on the Train: Readerly Subjectivity and the Poetics of the Novel, PMLA, Vol. 133, No. 5, Special Topic: Cultures of Reading (October 2018), pp. 1083-1098

This is a really interesting article on the subjectivity of the reader when experiencing a novel. It likens one’s ability to “read” themselves to how one reads a novel, and explores the impact that has on the reader’s perceptions of themselves by looking at Tolstoy’s character Anna Karenina.
