The essays are inclined to question the idea of 'the Canon' and re-consider the divide between the canonical and the popular. As such, besides engaging in a serious critical reading of typical popular literary texts like \u003ci\u003eThe Jungle Book\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Hound of the Baskervilles\u003c\/i\u003e, the book also considers populist tendencies in literary classics like \u003ci\u003eJane Eyre\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein\u003c\/i\u003e.
