  • Annotation
  • Authors
  • List of references

The features of reading communities and the psychology of reading on the Internet are considered, including the phenomenon of literary fanaticism, the «popular» recommendation of books, the relationship between readers and writers, the advantages and disadvantages of reader criticism. The reasons for the confrontation between reader and literary criticism, as well as the reasons that led to the crisis of professional literature examination are analyzed. It is concluded that overcoming the crisis of reading in Russia depends more on the further self-organization of readers on the Internet than on government campaigns to support reading. At the same time, the importance of analyzing reader feedback is emphasized in order to recreate an accurate and complete picture of reading in the country and to study the peculiarities of readers’ perception of various books and literary genres.
