Well, here’s the book. Although mainly a library guy, I figured I’d buy this one because 1) it gives the project a little more weight if I drop thirty bucks and 2) I plan on thoroughly defacing the thing with written comments and such. So, let’s begin. To start out, I’d like to post a positive quote and a ominous note:A positive quote:
“‘Tis the good reader that makes the good book.” – Emerson
An ominous note:
“The demand that I make of my reader is that he should devote his whole Life to reading my works.” – James Joyce
Seriously dude?
Well --- I "began" last night and I may need to fall into the category of a bad reader. I read a few pages (2% of the work according to Kindle) and it already, literally, turned my stomach a few times.
ReplyDeleteAs to your second quote -- no way!
Kindle should die!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the Everyman publications. they always have a nice feel.
