Millions of devoted readers support hundreds of enormous bookstores and onlinsellers. Jacobs's interactions with his students and the readers of his own books, however, suggest that many readers lack confidence; they wonder whether they are reading well, with proper focus and attentiveness, with due discretion and discernment. Jacobs offers an insightful, accessible, and playfully irreverent guide for aspiring readers. Each chapter focuses on one aspect of approaching literary fiction, poetry, or nonfiction, and th explores everything from the invention of silent reading, reading responsively, rereading, and reading on electronic devices.
