How to Read a Book: 002, A Few Thoughts on Books
image courtesy, Simon & Schuster A few thoughts on books and how long it takes me to read them, as they relate to what I learned reading this book Reading for joy, is just that. Reading for joy! Nothing needs to come in the way of that. Books can take as long as they need to be read. Comprehension is key. Not how many I finish. I was wondering how so many folks read so many books “better” faster than me. The book assures me that reading books analytically, reading ideas syntopically across a swathe of books is inherently slow. I cannot read everything that way. Nor should I want to obviously. The book needs to be worthy of that kind of time and attention. To quote Adler … A good book can teach you about the world and about yourself. You learn more than how to read better; you also learn more about life. You become wiser. Not just more knowledgeable—books that provide nothing but information can produce that result. But wiser, in the sense that you are more deeply aware of the great and enduring truths of human life.
