A Reader on Reading
A major collection of essays which explore the crafts of reading and writing, the identity granted to us by literature, the far-reaching shadow of Borges and the links between politics and books, and between books and our bodies. 'Books jump out of their jackets when Manguel opens them, and dance in delight as they make contact with his ingenious, voluminous brain' Peter Conrad, Observer
