Browser's Ecstasy
You must read this book if you want to read about one of our most curious pastimes, or should I say passions: spending hours deciphering symbols on paper. It is a phantasmagoria—some fiction, some non-—on the theme of reading, and it is always a privilege to share the thoughts, and the exquisite prose, of Geoffrey O'Brien. The book can stand on the short shelf of books about reading along with gems such as Gabriel Zaid's So Many Books.
