Gabriel Zaid – So Many Books: Reading and Publishing in an Age of Abundance

In So Many Books, Gabriel Zaid offers his observations on the literary condition: a highly original analysis of the predicament that readers, authors, publishers, booksellers, librarians, and teachers find themselves in today— when there are simply more books than any of us can contemplate.

Reading liberates the reader and transports him from his book to a reading of himself and all of life. It leads him to participate in conversations, and in some cases to arrange them…It could even be said that to publish a book is to insert it into the middle of a conversation.”—from So Many Books   źródło opisu: http://www.pauldrybooks.com/products/so-many-books źródło okładki: http://www.pauldrybooks.com/products/so-many-books
