Very interesting. Our attention spans have shortened. In addition, it is much easier to buy a book these days-you can go to Walmart and get a book along with your groceries. What would be interesting would be an analysis of the types of books that make up the bestseller lists. Drek like 50 shades aside, I think I remember Payton Place having more complex sentence structure than I see today. Or it could be that I am just smarter than I was then, and it doesn't seem complex to me now.
