Rapture culture : Left behind in Evangelical America
The Left Behind series has enjoyed incredible popularity in America, with over 40 million copies in print. Tracing the evolution of the genre of rapture fiction, Amy Johnson Frykholm explores this remarkable phenomenon, seeking to understand why American evangelicals find the idea of the rapture so compelling. Drawing on extensive interviews with readers of the novels, Rapture Culture sheds light on a mindset that is so little understood and far more common than many of us suppose. (Publisher)
