Reading is a revolutionary act, an act of engagement in a culture that wants us to disengage. In "The Lost Art of Reading, " David L. Ulin asks a number of timely questions -- why is literature important? What does it offer, especially now? Blending commentary with memoir, Ulin addresses the importance of the simple act of reading in an increasingly digital culture. Reading a book, flipping through hard pages, or shuffling them on screen -- it doesn´t matter. The key is the act of reading, the seriousness and depth. Ulin emphasizes the importance of reflection and pause allowed by stopping to read a book, and the focus required to let the mind run free in a world that is not one´s own. Far from preaching to the choir, "The Lost Art of Reading" is a call to arms, or rather, pages.
