Thanks for this. Check out Reader Come Home, by Maryanne Wolf, on your comment about the thinginess of physical books - among many other even more relevant insights:
“The best books are like surgeons. They change you but you do not remember them and they do not leave an external mark.” but even then “A great piece of writing is one that you feel on your skin." Sir, your each blog posting is like a micro-book for me. These are transforming my thoughts and I am getting insights from each blog.
I love your column as a futurist, but please write more on reading and books that have altered your life.
As a lover of books and a person who answers “reading” when asked what my hobby is, you have written a truly sublime column. Sharing the joy! Thanks!
Thank you David!
Excellent observation and articulation. enjoyed reading it.
