3.0 out of 5 stars A very short (for Proust) essay, December 4, 2011

kj (Orlando, Florida, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: On Reading (On Series) (Paperback)

A very short (for Proust) essay on why we read, why it is important to read, and why those of us who read find it really annoying when those of you who AREN'T reading interrupt us when we ARE reading. It was worth reading just to find that passage, for me
