“Watching a scene from a film in slow motion is possible, but there’s an unreal air to it; reading a passage from a book slowly does nothing to rob the words of their power. A film presents images; a book creates images inside the reader, with the reader’s active participation. Books are good for your brain.” DoeBookFilmReadingBrainAirReaderSceneActivePassagesParticipationUnrealSlow MotionActive Participation Author:Lewis Buzbee
“Books connect us with others, but that connection is created in solitude, one reader in one chair hearing one writer, what John Irving refers to as one genius speaking to another.” BookReaderGeniusSolitudeConnectionsHearingChairs Author:Lewis Buzbee
