Synopsis
The wide range of the reading experience is reflected in this book. Reading can be a passion or a hobby, a calling or a curse, enlightenment or entertainment--depending on the reader. This collection of quotations contains hundreds of musings on the act and art of reading, from the first joys of reading in childhood to the pleasures of re-reading a classic. Renowned authors and readers alike, from Eudora Welty and Vladimir Nabokov to Rita Mae Brown and Frank Zappa, reflect upon The Glory of Reading, How to Read, What to Read, Where to Read, Books as Objects, and Books as Friends. Wise, irreverent, and inspiring, these observations pay homage to the consuming pleasure of the printed word. Introduction by Doris Grumbach.
