This paper presents data from an empirical study on reading fiction for pleasure. The study covers students from the NBU and the University of Belgrade, Serbia. The aim of the publication is to bring a new touch to the portrait of the student as a reader. Based on the respondents' information, it is argued that reading on both sides of the Bulgarian-Serbian border is often approached with the same motivation; the main reason for distancing from reading is the lack of time, but also the lack of interest; the ways of relating to the fiction text can be defined as “autonomous reading”, “escapist syndrome”, “syndrome of chosen infantilism”.

The article is an attempt to identify the nationalities of authors of crime fiction published in Bulgaria during the first half of the 20th century. At that period of time it was the names of the protagonists which sold the books so in that regard the names of the authors were either unknown or of no importance at all. Due to this fact, little or nothing is known about the majority of crime books authors or about their real nationality as they have not been studied thoroughly by the Bulgarian retrospective bibliography. The lack of relevant information about the authors and their protagonists as well as the infiltration of English-language culture in Bulgarian publishing industry has resulted in categorizing these literary works mainly as ones written by American authors.
