Where I'm Reading From: The Changing World of Books

Tim Parks takes reading seriously. Seriously enough to talk about reading bravely, boldly, without fearing to step on our brittle book-lover toes. Parks dares to talk thoughtfully and critically about whether we can really talk thoughtfully and critically about our readings. He says we can and then he says we can't. Both are, of course, true.

You have never read someone who writes about reading so brutally and lovingly at the same time.
